Pros:

Personal muy amable y dispuesto a ayudar. Ubicación excepcional, a pasos de la estación de trenes y de los principales puntos turísticos.

Cons:

Faltaban enchufes en el baño para poder conectar artefactos. Una de las camas estaba al lado de la calefacción por lo que era un poco incómodo.

Pros:

Lage ist bestens um die Stadt zu besichtigen.
Zimmer war ruhig.
Neben Hotel gibts gleich ein gutes Irish Pub.

Cons:

Zimmer war wie eine Abstellkammer. Kalt und ungemütlich. Teilweise defektes Inventar und Radiator bluberte ganze Zeit, obwohl er gar nicht warm wurde. Duschstrahl ist auch eher schwach.
Bett ist durchgelegen und im Zimmer gibts nur Vorhänge, welche nicht richtig abdunkeln.
Alles etwas schmudelig.
