Good location, nice staff but wouldn't stay there again
Pros:

Clean bed and the room was big

Cons:

No tea or coffee making facilities. Bed was very small. There was plenty of room for a king single bed. No information in the room about contacting reception. Bathroom amenities small & limited

Godt centralt hotel
Pros:

Supergod beliggenhed, lige skråt over for Hovedbanegården, men alligevel stille og roligt. Venligt personale. Generelt tilfredsstillende.

Cons:

Jeg savnede mørklægningsgardin på værelset. Og røræggene til morgenmaden var ikke gode nogen af dagene.

Skuffet over at bruge et værelse hvor der blev arbejdet fra morgenstund, meget lille badeværelse .
Pros:

Hotellet ligger godt midt i byen. Vi har brugt hotellet før og har været meget tilfredse, men ikke denne gang.

Cons:

Vi fik værelse 135, som ligger på 1. etage udsigt til gården, hvor der blev arbejdet, fra kl. 6.50 , et værelse der burde være et enkelt værelse, meget trangt badeværelse, og ikke være i brug når der var arbejdende håndværkere.

War völlig ausreichend aber etwas laut.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war sehr gut, viel Auswahl! Zimmer waren ausreichend. Es befindet sich kein Schrank im Zimmer. Die Lage ist sehr zentral direkt neben dem Hauptbahnhof. Man kommt gut überall zu Fuß oder Bus/Bahn hin

Cons:

Das Hotel liegt direkt gegenüber eines Burgerking. Wenn man das Zimmer zur Straßenseite hat ist es sehr laut, da direkt da unter sich Bushaltestellen befinden und eine viel befahrene Straße. Schräg unter dem Hotel befindet sich auch Espresso House. Das Hotel wird gerade renoviert, davon hat man so gut wie nichts mitbekommen, nur dass der Eingang verschoben wurde.
