für ein Wochenende immer wieder gerne :)
Pros:

Zimmer mit Blick zur Stadt ist immer ein wenig laut, aber bei geschlossenen Fenstern aushaltbar.

Leider hatten wir ein Zimmer mit Badewanne. Für uns in Ordnung aber für Leute mit eingeschränkter Mobilität ein sehr hoher Einstieg.

Das Frühstücksbuffet am Sonntag war sehr stark frequentiert. Das Personal hat sein möglichstes getan, alle Wünsche zu erfüllen und auch Ausweichplätze zur Verfügung gestellt. Durch den Umbau der Lobby standen weniger Plätze zur Verfügung
