Pros:

Lage, alles Wichtige ist zu Fuß oder mit Bus/Bahn direkt zu erreichen. Das Personal war ausgesprochen freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir durften unser Zimmer einige Stunden zu früh beziehen, ein Segen nach einer durchreisten Nacht.

Cons:

Unser Zimmer war kleiner, als es auf den Fotos wirkt. Keine Schränke, kaum Ablagefläche. Für ein paar Tage aus dem Koffer reichts.

Fine for one night.
Pros:

Location was very good.

Cons:

Parking was not good - didn’t warn us enough that we needed to pre-book parking with their unique code. Even with their discount, it was very expensive.

Pros:

Perfect location, close to everywhere you want to visit. The staff were very helpful and cheerful.

Cons:

The rooms are very small. The double bed are not for 2 people. In our double room there was not enough space and one of us needed to get out of the room for the other to change clothes. Then we asked to change our room at least with a bigger bathroom so we didnt have to leave the room when the other is changing clothes.. The room comfort is noy valuable for the price :(
