Imagine a business hotel near international conference center that doesn't offer a desk/ table inside the room. The reason, the manager doesn't feel it as necessary. The argument, customer can come down to the bar and prepare their presentations. Forget about the comfort of your own room and your own pyjamas, while preparing a late night presentation.
Facilities- No toiletries (obvious expectation for Europe), No room phone (again obvious expiration for Europe), No tissues (Not so obvious expectation for Europe), and top of all- no room cleaning unless you specifically ask for that. They have a strange room-hang which on one side says- Please don't clean the room and on the other side it says-Don't disturb. And when you ask why room is not cleaned, they would say that you didn't hang anything outside the room!! But whatever you hand, it says- don't enter the room. Smart!!
The reception staff was cordial and helping in nature. The bus 236 from outside the hotel is a true saviour if you are looking for a public transport.
Breakfast- Standard European
Overall, the big negative points were absence of desk and lack of interest in room cleaning. Even after asking daily, the quality of room cleaning was sub-standard.
