Powered by AI
Hotel Embassy enjoys a great location, just a short walk from the SMN train station. Guests often appreciate the clean, well-maintained rooms, and find the bathrooms modern. The breakfast buffet offers a good variety of options, and the rooms are larger than typical European accommodations; however, some guests have noted occasional noise from trains due to the proximity to the station.

Ideal Location and Comfortable Stay

clean roomking bedconvenient locationbroken ac
The room had a king bed. I appreciated the cleanliness and maintenance of the room. Its location by the train station was very convenient for late-night arrivals. A huge balcony was part of the room!
The AC wasn't working, and although I notified the front desk, the issue wasn't resolved . They provided a fan, but that was not sufficient. It was difficult to get into the bathroom. It also lacked a fan. The window had no fly screen.
Service

The staff were friendly, helpful, and kind. The receptionist knew I was leaving early so he had a breakfast to go prepared early. I loved the really good attention.

Complimentary bottled still and sparkling mineral water was provided. Excellent breakfast was included. Beautiful high frescoed ceilings adorned rooms. Quiet and warm rooms were beneficial even in January.
