2/10 Poor
May 10, 2019
This studio apartment was located in walking distance to my destination at the university and was clean and spacious. On the negative side the apartment felt bare and uninviting in the style of a student residence, and had some functional issues, e.g. broken light bulb, dripping bathroom taps, low quality bed.
A significant issue was construction noise from a major subway tunnel construction site in front of the building operating from 7am. I would advise anyone to check whether the project section on Kriegsstrasse has been completed.
A peculiarity about this location is that you need to register and pick up your key card at their other location. This was explained in the booking confirmation and worked reasonably well. However, walking with luggage between locations was challenging as I ran into a no-pedestrian zone where I had to walk on the car lane of a major two-lane street for some 100 metres.
Therefore, I was particularly annoyed when I was told the following morning that I needed to pick up a new key card for the remaining two nights. SEEGER had kindly confirmed that I could stay in the same room but failed to mention the need for a new key card. I had an argument over the phone with their director, as a result of which he cancelled the second booking for the next two nights with reference to their house rules. I was given two hours to return to the apartment and vacate it before my card access would expire, and was left struggling to find new accommodation.
