My 4th visit. Always my 1st choice in Hamburg.
Pros:

ALL the staff are excellent - friendly and very helpful.
Good range of food at breakfast.
Location is excellent - Stephensplatz is excellent for public transport and Collonade has a good choice of restaurants for evening meal.
Always good value for money.

Cons:

I wish there was tea and coffee making facilities in the bedroom.
Room was sometimes a little noisy from outside, but not a deal breaker.

Es wird ein TwinBed angegeben, vor Ort dann die negative Überraschung. Nur ein kleines 90x200 Bett, dass leider auch nicht besonders bequem war.
