Senza infamia e senza lode
Pros:

Struttura recente a piedi a 15 minuti da stazione ferroviaria e circa 25/30 minuti da cattedrale e castello. Camera luminosa, ben illuminata, ben insonorizzata da rumori esterni. Doccia ben utilizzabile. Regolare ricambio asciugamani. Colazione con scelta completa ma non particolarmente varia, buoni i minimuffin. Buona pulizia della breakfast lounge, molto luminosa.

Cons:

Camera non ben insonorizzata da rumori da camere attigue. Letto molto stretto (dato standard). Per coppie di persone alte conviene forse richiedere camera a 2 letti singoli. Ripiani con angoli non smussati (abbiamo dato 2 belle zuccate!). Poco spazio per aprire valigie nonostante un divano di dimensioni ragguardevoli. Consigliabile per soggiorni molto brevi.

Great location for a short visit.
Pros:

Good size room and bathroom both clean. Comfortable beds. Very good breakfast buffet. Clean public areas. Ample parking.

Cons:

Road noise from the closed window. We were on the 4th Floor and traffic noise was quite loud. Lack of coat hooks. Ideal space on the wall at the back of the door to place some coat hooks.
