Geen luxe of comfort, wel goede uitgangspositie om de stad te verkennen met een heerlijk ontbijt.
Pros:

Het ontbijt is uitgebreid en heel goed. Vriendelijk personeel bij het ontbijt. De locatie is geweldig.

Cons:

Bed van kamer 420 was niet in topvorm, lekkende douchekraan, schimmel in de badkamer, geen airco op de kamer, geen flesje water in de minibar.

Pros:

- Das komplette Personal war super freundlich
- Das Frühstück war Tip Top. Frisch und lecker
- Ziemlich Central

Cons:

- In der Friesenstraße ist immer Action. Mit offenen Fenster kann man definitiv nicht schlafen. Dementsprechend nachts immer Laut.

Meine Freundin und ich hatten zwei sehr schöne Tage im Hotel und in der Stadt.
Pros:

Frühstück und Lage sind super! Viele Lokale sind in der Nähe, alle Sehenswürdigkeiten sind fußläufig erreichbar.

Cons:

Ich hatte ein Zimmer mit Wanne. Der Einstieg war sehr hoch und ich hatte als älterer Mensch Angst zu stürzen. Teile des Mobiliars sind in die Jahre gekommen.

Stanza/Personale ottima esperienza. Da rivedere la doccia.
Pros:

Stanza singola molto spaziosa, ben arredata e pulita. Viene data possibilità di lasciare i bagagli in custodia ma il ck out ufficiale alle 12 è veramente molto comodo. Il personale è molto accogliente e disponibile per tutte le esigenze. Interessante l'idea di rinunciare alle pulizie per 1 giorno e in cambio ti danno un voucher per ottenere un prodotto a tua scelta dai distributori della hall.

Cons:

Per arrivare in centro c'è un po' da camminare ma si fa tranquillamente in 10/15 minuti. Lo dico solo per chi non ama camminare.
La cosa che non mi è piaciuta è l'apertura della doccia. Io sono magra ma c'era una sola anta che aperta non poteva in alcun modo consentire l'ingresso di una persona robusta. Questo può sul serio essere un problema. In più il piatto doccia era un po' scivoloso. Si la doccia era in quella stanza, peraltro molto bene curata, la nota dolente. Non per me, ma può esserlo per altri.
In fine il vero disastro è il cuscino di piuma d'oca. Orribile , si appiattisce anche se lo arrotoli e ti svegli più volte col collo in tutte le direzioni.
