Praktisch für einen kurzen Städtetrip.
Pros:

Die Lage war super. Die meisten Dinge fußläufig zu erreichen. Und eine mini Nische mit Geschirr, Kühlschrank und Waschbecken war vorhanden.
Platz in der Tiefgarage ziemlich eng, aber wir hatten noch einen bekommen. Aufzug von der Tiefgarage direkt bis in den 6. Stock, sehr praktisch.

Cons:

Das Bett hat bei jedem Umdrehen/ jeder noch so kleinen Bewegung ziemlich gequietscht.
Das Frühstück war leider eintönig.

sehr zentral gelegenes Hotel mit tollem Frühstück
Pros:

Tolles Frühstück, super Lage, man kann zu Fuß überall hin.
Das Personal an der Rezeption ist nicht sehr bemüht. Wir kamen etwas eher an und mussten tatsächlich bis zur Eincheckzeit warten
Die Zimmer sind klein und funktionell.

Convenient, Comfortable, great breakfast included
Pros:

Great location and great breakfast. Limited parking but they were able to accommodate us. There is also public parking close by.

Cons:

The 2 bedroom suite wasn't really 2 bedrooms. More like one private bedroom and a bed in the living space. The mini fridge and the little dinette area was also in the private bedroom. A bit of a weird way to set things up but it was ok for our stay. Just letting others know if they are traveling with people who may be up at different times and need a in room coffee or fridge access and prefer privacy through the stay.
