Very modern, nice and clean hotel. It would have been great to have some tea and coffee, though. The one major downside was that the place was hard to find. There are three Minn hotels within a block with very similar names, and this hotel isn’t listed in Google and Apple Maps, so finding the place was a trial and error operation.

The hotel itself is great and it was easy to get to the train station, and quieter than staying on the other side of the river. That being said - if you’re on the basement level, there was an extremely weird smell in the hallway that was seeping into our room on the first day. Thankfully, once we got the AC turned on and sprayed some air freshener, it helped - but it was pretty awful in the hallway the whole time.

The main problem with this hotel is there is no staff manning the front desk/reception. Every time we needed assistance we had to use the iPad to video call someone who would try and help, this was not a great process. When travelling in a foreign country we like having the front desk to help assist with not just our needs at the hotel but their knowledge and tips navigating their city. The room itself is spacious and well configured.
