Lieber nicht nochmal.
Pros:

Zentrale Lage, zu Fuss ist man rasch in der Fussgägerzone.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war sauber aber etwas heruntergekommen. Die Lobby, Treppenhaus und der Flur war schmuddelig, unordentlich (herumliegende Kartons) und sehr schmutzig. Auf das Frühstück haben wir dankend verzichtet. Bei Strassenbahndurchfahrt hört man das auch in Zimmern zum Hof.
