Ich kann dieses Hotel nicht empfehlen und werde nicht wieder buchen.
Pros:

freundliches Personal

Cons:

Die Klimaanlage im Zimmer war wirkungslos. Für mich war diese Ausstattung der entscheidenden Faktor für die Wahl dieses Hotels. Im Zimmer war es wärmer als draußen obwohl die Klima-Anlage manuell im Zimmer auf Max gestellt wurde.

Direkt vor dem Fenster war eine Baustelle und die ganze Nacht lang sehr laute Leute (gegröllt). An Schlaf war kaum zu denken.

Mehrere Sender auf dem Fernseher haben ein gestörtes Bild gezeigt (buntes Flackern).

Zur PkW-Garage mußte man weit laufen.

Grundsätzlich okay.
Pros:

Schönes Zimmer, wenn auch etwas klein. Alles sauber und funktional.

Cons:

Draußen war eine Veranstaltung mit extrem lauter Musik. Man konnte nicht schlafen. Wir sind noch in der Nacht abgereist.

Pros:

Gute Lage, freundliches Personal, gute Betten, funktionierende Klimatisierung!

Cons:

Leider war unser Zimmer zum Hinterhof, in dem Lüftungsanlagen recht laut waren und daher ein Öffnen des Fensters nicht möglich war. Das Frühstück ist eher einfach.

Essen deki Evim
Pros:

Rahat ve konforlu bir odada kaldım. Yatak ve yastıklar çok rahattı. Nevresimler çok temizdi. Havlu temizdi ancak üzerinde bayan saçı vardı. Ayrıca günlük temizlik sırasında odadaki mobilyaların tozunun alınmadığını fark ettim. Resepsiyon görevlileri çok sempatik ve yardıma açık kişilerdi. Otelin konumu tam merkezde olup her yere ulaşım çok kolaydı. Tekrar kalmak isterdim.

Cons:

Odada mini bir buzdolabı ve ketlee olmayışı çok kötüydü. İçecekler hep sıcaktı. Acil olarak odalara mini buzdolabı koyulması gerekiyor.
