If you enjoy the customer service at airport security: stay at the Moxy.
The positives first: the room is clean and comfortable, and the price is cheap considering the location is within a scooter/tram ride to the city centre.
The Moxy brand wants to be cool and fun but it’s just a global corporation (Marriot) trying too hard to be cool for kids. Pokémon themed cereal zone? Lipstick writing on the elevator mirrors? Disco lights at reception? Finger-painting artwork in the rooms?
More importantly, beware:
The staff are arbitrary, rude, and slow. For example -
when I arrived, after a long drive, reception was busy. When I got to the front of the line they asked me to sit and wait in the bar instead. OVER AN HOUR later I went back, pleading to please be allowed to check in now. The only explanation given why I had been forced out was: “the other people didn’t want to wait”.
I was the only person given this arbitrary extra wait - it was just capricious.
I also asked them to explain the 2 page contract of the check-in form, which required several signatures next to different sections of tiny illegible photocopied text, and all they merely said was “this is for us” while whipping it out of my hands.
Note: if you prioritise quiet - the weekend nightclub on the ground floor is audible to at least level 5. And there is always dance music playing in the common area.
To the person who left a review saying they only paid €3 parking for the weekend, that is misleading. It’s €3 per HOUR but actually €22 per DAY.
