- comfy mattress, pillows were also very good, though quite firm.
- room was quiet, even though it fronted onto the entrance/exit to Ziggodome. No noise as concert goers were leaving.
- black out blinds have seen better days, and several in the room need to be replaced as they let light in due to wear and tear.
- there is no phone. Instead, as part of a series of odd design choices, the "phone" is accessible through a tablet in the room, except joke was on us, the tablet didn't work so there was no way to call reception or for room service
- the shower... what an awful thing to deal with. Unbelievably controlled with touch buttons that only work if you pretend you are giving them CPR. And even then, you had better be strong!!!
- the design of the shower meant the drain was concealed by a large tile. There is a narrow gap all around the large tile to allow water to escape. The gap was filthy, sludgey, slimy, black. It appeared to have never been cleaned. The grout in the shower was also in bad shape in the lower half of the shower.
- the bathroom floor was heated, which was very nice.
- the heating for the rest of the room was inexplicably done on a 1-4 scale... ie you can increase or decrease the temperature in the room by 1, 2, 3, or 4. 1 what? Unknown, could be 1 degree, 1%, 1 some other random #. Who knows. There was no explanation.
- internet functioned well.
- breakfast was extremely basic. Very little in the way of options, especially compared to other European hotel breakfasts. The orange juice was not fresh. They did not have a good selection of breads.
- staff were either genuinely engaged or did not seem to care at all. A strange combination.
- rooms were very dimly lit. Hard to do makeup with so little light. Frustrating.
- I personally did not enjoy the theme of rockstar being pushed at every turn.
