Great if you are traveling by car. Very easy access from E39, free parking in front of the hotel. Contactless check-in and out was simple and quick. Friendly staff was available to help. Our room was quite compact, but matched our expectations for a budget hotel nevertheless. One negative aspect was the insufficient number of electrical plugs. We did not have breakfast, but the hotel was offering water and tea/coffee at the lobby for all guests at all times. This was a very nice surprise.

Problems with the lock on the garage, solved by allowing parking outside. Rooms are SMALL, but clean. If you need a single bed, order a single bed, as the double will make the room more cramped. But given the price, location and free parking, it was a bargain.
