Cons:

Da die Zimmer schon recht teuer sind, finde ich eine zusätzliche Gebühr von den Parkplatz nicht angemessen.

Super
Pros:

Das Personal an der Rezeption ist erstklassig (10+), stets bereit zu helfen, egal wobei man Unterstützung braucht. Vielen Dank dafür ♥️

Cons:

Die Betten sind leider Einzelbetten und zusammengeschoben haben den positiven Gesamteindruck aber kaum geschmälert.

Viel zu teuer für das was sie bekommen
Pros:

Ein schönes Zimmer wenn die Klima richtig funktionieren würde.

Cons:

Parkplatz 15€
Das Frühstück ist wie in einer Mensa und vll. 5€ wert aber keine 21€.
Ich bin sehr Enttäuscht bei 185€ Übernachtungskosten.
