late check-in single elevator
The in-room espresso machine did work as expected.
Check-in at 4 PM is rather late. There was only one elevator for five floors and it was constantly in use by staff and guests. I was waiting quite a long time.

breakfast buffet attentive staff coffee machine small room broken safe luggage assistance
the breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options. the staff was attentive, especially during breakfast service. my room had a coffee machine and a kettle, both worked well. the location was close to museums and several dining places.
the room was quite small, so it lacked enough storage. the safe in my room was broken throughout my stay. i did not receive assistance with my luggage upon arrival, i had to carry it myself.
