Alles im allen ein schöner Kurzurlaub.
Pros:

Sehr gute Lage. Alles fußläufig zu erreichen. Das Frühstück war sehr gut und üppig. Das Zimmer war gut und die Schalldämmung war gut, Keine Sörgeräusche in der Nacht trotz Vollbelegung. Das Restauran war sehr gut. Neben der normalen Speisekarte täglich wechselnde leckere Angebote. Auch die Servicekräfte waren super.
