Horrível
Pros:

Somente da localização

Cons:

O hotel no geral, as toalhas velhas, roupa de cama fedida, quarto fedido com mofo, cama velha e ruim, na verdade hotel velho, apenas dois elevadores, a única vantagem é a localização do hotel

Pros:

Tolle Lage, sehr freundliches Personal und köstliches und reichliches Frühstück

Cons:

Die Situation mit dem Aufzug…. Der Aufzug war sehr langsam und man musste lange auf einen Aufzug warten - mühsam, grad wenn man im 15. Stock das Zimmer hat. Und das Regeln des Wassers war auch eine Herausforderung
