Great stay for the money that you pay, do not expect 4 star experience.
Pros:

Very friendly staff, easy to find hotel, nice view from the room, quiet area next to the Danube river, great continental breakfast with loads of choice, from scrambled eggs, bacon, fruit, bread selection and deserts.

Cons:

Hotel room and the rest of the facilities need some new updates, starting from beds, room in general, carpets, reception area, gym etc, outdated. Another very interesting point is that this hotel is 4 stars and I had to ask reception for a kettle and a toothbrush with toothpaste, just basic toiletries, not to mention no welcome water or anything else.

Good if it wasn't for the expensive parking fee.
Pros:

Hotel is modern and standardized.

Cons:

Paid parking. Parking fee was exorbitant. More than a third of the price of the room. Not worth it if you want value.

Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels.com sowie die Aussicht aus dem 5.Stock war wirklich super!

Cons:

Leider hatten wir statt dem reservierten Zweibett-Zimmer ein Doppelzimmer. Auch das Badezimmer war sehr beengt und beim Frühstück fiel ständig die Kaffeemaschine aus
