Pros:

Die Lage war prima. 10 Minuten zu Fuß zum Dom. Kleiner Balkon, völlig o.k Das Frühstück können wir nicht bewerten, hatten ohne gebucht.

Cons:

Es wäre nett gewesen, keine Unterwäsche von den Vormietern im Schrank zu finden 😉. Das Bad könnte mal überholt werden. Die Dusche ging für uns gerade so ( vom Einstieg) stabilere Personen hätten ein Problem.

Pros:

The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location couldn’t be better. The cathedral, shops, and main attractions are all within walking distance. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to explore the city on foot.Friendly and helpful staff. Felt comfortable and well looked after. Easy to access with a fob key.

Cons:

The main downside was the noise from inside the hotel. The walls are thin, so you can hear guests in the next room, people talking, doors slamming, and movement in the hallway outside the room.

Izgleda prljav i star. Prehladno je bilo.
Preskup za tu cijenu nažalost.
Živio sam za trenutak da izadjem iz njega.
