Disappointed
Pros:

Quiet - felt like I was alone in this hotel. Staff was fine. They let me check in early without a fee.

Cons:

Bathroom was very dated - ugly and too dark. Bed was too short - Im 5.7 but my feet were outside the bed. Could not make the coffee machine work. The curtain for the window did not cover the whole window so room was bright in the night. Hotel room was very dated.

Nie wieder!
Pros:

Die Lage. Mitten in Downtown.

Cons:

Ausser freundliche Mitarbeiter, nichts!! Die Zimmer sind in die Jahre gekommen. Flecken 🫟 an der Decke. Die Vorhänge vergilbt, löchrig und eingerissen. Etwas wärmer Duschen, oder Baden, was man bei diesem kalten Wetter ja auch Mal gerne macht, war nicht möglich, da die Duschen voreingestellt waren, so dass man manuell die Dusche nicht regeln konnte. Es kam nur ein leicht erwärmtes Wasser aus der Dusche. Das schlimmste aber waren die ständigen lauten Klopfgeräusche aus der Heizung! Tag und Nacht! Wirklich! An der Lobby wurde man vertröstet, daß der Hausmeister bescheid wisse. Geändert hat sich nichts!
Also, alles in allem ein Hotel daß saniert gehört, aber sicher nicht mehr besucht!!!
