Cons:

Der Mitarbeiter an der Rezeption war ziemlich unfreundlich und hat abgelehnt, dass ich mein Fahrrad im hotel oder einem Nebenraum unterstelle, angeblich waren schon alle Plätze belegt; ich habe aber keine weiteren Radfahrer gesehen. Er hat sich auch gar nicht bemüht, ein paar Worte englisch zu sprechen

Schlafen in einem alten Hotel
Pros:

Ein wunderschönes altes Hotel. Der alte Plattenboden im Zimmer war toll.
Das Bad mit altem Waschtisch im modernen Bad hat es wohnlich gemacht.

Cons:

Schade wird nicht mehr in die Renovation investiert. Es ist ein tolles Haus, das erhaltet werden soll.
