    the room was fantastic - it was very clean and spacious, with a big bathroom and all the necessary amenities. I was especially impressed with the comfortable double bed, it was just perfect for a good night's sleep. Additionally, the hotel offered private parking under video surveillance, which gave me peace of mind. Moreover, the location of the hotel was excellent as it was within walking distance of a shopping centre with two supermarkets and several other shops. This made it very convenient for me to grab any essentials or indulge in a bit of retail therapy during my stay. Lastly, I must mention the breakfast - it was delicious, and the freshly made coffee and boiled eggs were the highlights of the meal. I was extremely satisfied with my experience at this hotel.

    No negative aspects.

    I had a fantastic one-night stay in this hotel. The room was very clean and comfortable with a beautifully tiled bathroom. I appreciated the tea and coffee facilities in the room and the tasty buffet breakfast included in the price. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is well-connected to public transport with a bus stop just 40 metres away and the metro station a short walk away. It's also conveniently located within walking distance of a shopping centre with two supermarkets and several other shops.

    Nothing to complain about at all.

    The breakfast was a great start to the day, offering a variety of delicious foods. the location was perfect, situated just outside of town, providing a peaceful and quiet environment. we appreciated the fan in the room to help keep us cool on warmer days.

    The bathroom could have been better designed, considering the cramped layout and slippery shower. we felt that the self-check-in system was a bit impersonal and could have used more staff availability for recommendations and questions.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the unique concept of Hotel Des Inventions. Each room dedicated to a different inventor was fascinating. The balcony views of the lake from my room on the 4th floor were absolutely stunning. The spaciousness of the room and the thoughtful furnishings and decorations added to the overall comfort. Despite the lack of air conditioning, the hotel provided a fan without us even having to ask.

    The hotel was reasonably priced and had a unique theme with inventor-inspired rooms. The breakfast was generous and the bircher muesli was the best I've ever had! Plus, we were given a free public transport card which was useful for exploring the area.

    The bed and pillows were extremely uncomfortable. It was hard to get a good night's rest, which affected our overall stay.

    This hotel is conveniently located near public transport, and within walking distance of a shopping center. the rooms are modern, clean, quiet, and well soundproofed. Plus, the breakfast buffet is delicious with lots of options to choose from.

    The bed covers and cushions are made of pure synthetics, making it too warm and difficult to get a good night's sleep.
