Lovely Staff, good location, decent rooms, but Metro vibrations mean I wouldn't go back.
Pros:

staff, location, room

Cons:

you could feel the metro go under the rooms and that interfered with sleep. the bathrooms are not as fresh as they should be (block mildew in the corners). In spite of the rate advertised, it was more expensive.

Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr gut, wichtige Verkehrsmittel sind fußläufig zu erreichen. Ein kleines, nettes Hotel mit einem reichhaltigen und leckerem Frühstück.

Cons:

Wenn Sie ein Innenhof Zimmer bestellen, dann haben Sie einen Blick auf die nächstgelegene Wand in circa 2 m Entfernung. Aber das Zimmer war sauber und wenn sie nicht auf die Aussicht aus sind, dann war es in Ordnung.
