Die Lage ist super, wenn man in den Grugapark möchte. Auch in einen Einkaufsbereich kommt man sehr rasch.

Tolles Hotel mit Charme und Freundlichekeit
Pros:

Sehr gut gefallen hat uns die tolle Lage zur Gruga Halle und den ÖPNV (3 Min. zu Fuß zur Gruga Halle, 2 Min. zur nächsten U-Bahn Station) Das sehr freundliche Personal, das saubere und geräumige Zimmer, wie auch das hervorragende Frühstück!

Am Morgen gab es ein unvorhersehbares Problem mit der Heizung bei der Warmwasserversorgung. Das kann mal passieren! Für diese Unannehmlichkeiten kam man uns mit einer besonderen Aufmerksamkeit, von Seiten der Hoteldirektion entgegen!

Nochmals vielen Dank dafür !!!
