Pros:

L'emplacement idéal pour visiter partout, la literie, la propreté, toutes les personnes de l'accueil et du petit déjeuner

Cons:

Chambres très mal insonorisées (jour autour de la porte) Un soir à 00h30, un groupe de voisins de palier espagnols à parlé si fort pendant un quart d'heure qu'on aurait pu croire qu'ils étaient dans la chambre. Ce problème est souvent signalé dans les avis de clients

Standard zu etwas hohem Preis
Pros:

Sauber, gute Lage, freundliches Personal

Cons:

Preis-Leistungsverhältnis - kleine Zimmer - das so sehr gelobte Frühstück war über 5 Tage ohne Abwechslung und von sehr einfacher Qualität
Für 5 Tage mit Frühstück über 700€ war meiner Meinung nach nicht angebracht

Mayormente conforme.
Pros:

La amabilidad y predisposición de los empleados del front desk. Por ejemplo, les pregunté si me darían agua caliente y me prestaron un hervidor para que yo mismo calentara el agua que necesitaba. La ubicación muy buena, al lado del ayuntamiento y con estacionamiento a 2 cuadras. Un poco caro el estacionamiento a 24 Euros por día.

Cons:

Poca insonorización de las habitaciones, se escucha mucho el murmullo de la charla de personas en habitaciones contiguas.

Prima verblijf op een top locatie
Pros:

Omdat we vroeg waren aangekomen de bagage afgegeven en de stad verkend. Bij terugkomst stond de bagage al op de kamer top geregeld.
Daarnaast zijn de kamers ruim en zit het hotel midden in de stad.

Cons:

De bedden waren best prima maar kunnen wel een upgrade gebruiken. Ook het ontbijt kan iets uitgebreider.

Hotel in sehr guter Lage
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr gut. Das Personal überdurchschnittlich freundlich. Die Zimmer sind in die Jahre gekommen - aber für den Preis, Lage und Ausblick in Ordnung.

Pros:

A localização é excelente, a cama é muito confortável e os funcionários são muito atenciosos. Começámos muito bem a nossa estadia.

Cons:

A limpeza deixou um pouco a desejar, pois o mobiliário tinha algum pó. O pequeno-almoço também pode melhorar, o pão que serviram era do dia anterior.
