Would not book again
Pros:

The location

Cons:

The room was quite run down, with damages on walls, dirty carpets in hallways, drain clogged after 1 minutes in the shower.
The bed was a very hard, cheap, foam mattress.
The reception staff didnt seem happy to help either, when I couldnt find the QR code to check in I asked the receptionist to check me in (as was introduced as a common way to check in if needed) and she just pointed me to the machine. If you stay there during hot months you will need to sleep with the window open but the noise inside will prevent you from sleeping. Upon further review of the area I found hotels with A/C and better ratings at the same price.

Für eine Nacht nach dem Konzert okay, würde aber nicht wieder buchen.
Pros:

Die Betten waren okay.

Cons:

Die Dusche wurde definitiv nicht gesäubert. Seifenreste und alles voller dunkler lange Haare in der Duschwanne, Wänden und Abfluss. Das Zimmer zur Straße ist unfassbar laut, keine Klimaanlage/ Lüftung.

Für eine Nacht grade so ok
Pros:

Die Lage war sehr gut

Cons:

Sehr schade war , das wohl mindestens ein Bett nicht frisch bezogen war. Das erkannte man daran das zwischen Bettrgestelll und Matratze Nüsse des Vorgängers steckten was ja definitiv nicht sein kann wenn das Laken frisch bezogen und die Matratze dafür angehoben worden wäre.
Das ganze Zimmer sah ein bisschen unsauber aus
