Okay, leider schlechte Parkmöglichkeiten...
Pros:

Mitarbeiter sind sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Service absolut in Ordnung.

Cons:

Die Parksituation ist ein Drama. Parkhaus permanent voll ebenso der Parkplatz neben dem Hotel. Man bekommt zwar einen Zettel mit Parkmöglichkeiten in der Umgebung, was den Zeitaufwand der Suche nicht verbessert.

Schönes, großes Zimmer mit Blick auf den Rhein, daher keine Straßengeräusche. Tolle Dusche! Zentral gelegen! Wir durften unsere Fahrräder kostenlos in die Tiefgarage stellen.
