Definitely would return!!
Pros:

Staff was very friendly and attentive, and fulfilled all our requests; and room was nice, spacious, and complete for our needs. Example, 1. we had a delivery from Amazon, and they kept it in the front desk while we were out; 2. one morning there was a remodeling or maintenance done in a room across ours and the hammering woke us, thus they offered to change rooms, but we did not want to, so instead we agreed on a schedule that worked for both; 3. liked that the bathroom sink was separate from the bath and the toilet; 4. breakfast was gooood...it was varied and healthy. My kids loooved the pancakes; the room included a microwave, which makes it more convenient than to have just one in the lobby for all guests to use; 5. the hotel had laundry facilities. They had two washers, and two driers, which worked perfectly for me as I was the only one using it lol...so I could do two loads at a time. And the app for paying was super friendly and convenient.

Cons:

Only a few things I would improve: 1. more space in the bath/toilet area 2. be aware of dust in the room furniture. I saw that the bed stand and the tv/microwave/refrigerator area was a little bit dusty 3. would add a few additional hooks to the room or bathroom area for towel hanging. This is something that, I don't know why, every hotel lack. We always have to hang the towels across the room. There are a few places in the bathroom for hanging, but not enough for a family of four. Someone would say to use the hangers, but we use the hangers for our clothes.

Pros:

- perfekte Lage im Stadtzentrum und einem lebendigen Viertel mit Bars und Restaurants
- wir bekamen ein kostenloses Upgrade für ein größeres Zimmer und hatten somit viel Platz und eine schöne Aussicht aus dem obersten Stockwerk
- Frühstück vorhanden
- kostenlos Tee/Kaffee im Eingangsbereich

Cons:

- Schallisolierung zu den Nachbarzimmern war dürftig, so dass wir teilweise laute Geräusche hörten
- Frühstück mit sehr eingeschränkter Auswahl und nur Einwegbesteck/-geschirr (dementsprechend viel Müll)
