We, a couple, stayed more than a week in this hotel during xmas period 2011. Compared to all other 4 star hotels we have stayed in, 987 hotel clearly is overrated and in my opinion it should be a 3 star hotel.
+ nice bed and a very good shower
+ location, 15minute walk to the center and a lot of restaurants and bars just few hundread meters away. Tram stop just 50m outside the hotel.
+ free wifi
- Cleaning. We did not want cleaning everyday. But every other day when we required cleaning , we found out the room was not cleaned very well. I could see they did not even change the sheets. There was always dust on the floor and I think the only thing they cleaned were the sink and the toilet to be honest
- Noise. Our room was close to where the cleaners keep their gear. In the mornings we often wanted to sleep later than 8am but the cleaners made so much noise that it was impossible to sleep late in the mornings. Maybe we should have asked for a different room.
- Not very practical. The sink was in the middle of the entrance, its the 1st thing you see when you go in to your room and I believe the sink should be in the bathroom and/or toilet, not in the hall. Not very practical or nice. This atleast in the standard room, I dont know where the sinks are in superior rooms.
- Breakfast. I have honestly never had worse breakfast in any 3 or 4 star hotels and I have visited many. Theres no selection, the food runs out quickly and no one seems to keep an eye what is missing so you end up asking and then waiting...and waiting. If your breakfast is just coffee, some bread, bacon and egg then this will be ok for you but if you want variety and something more then book somewhere else.
- Bar and restaurant. I would not consider having a drink in the bar or staying for a dinner in the restaurant. When you look at hotel pictures on their website it all looks very nice but when you walk in the hotel you can see that its only that the photographer has done a very good job.
Conclusion. What you get is a nice bed, nice shower and nice location so the hotel is just great for business trip or if you dont want to spend much time in the hotel other than sleeping. But if you want a special trip and to treat yourself then book somewhere else.
