Great stay!
Pros:

Location right in the Altstadt is perfect. There was no on site parking available wheNin we were there. We parked overnight in a city garage only a few blocks away for 16€/night. Breakfast was delicious with many options. We booked air conditioned rooms which all worked out as per our booking. Owner of the Gasthaus was so pleasant and accomadating of children. I would definitely stay there again when visiting Heidelberg.

Efsane
Pros:

Öncelikle misafirliklerinden ötürü çok teşekkür ediyorum. Otelin konumu ve konforu harikaydı. Oda çok genişti. Otelin eski tarzdaki atmosferi keyifliydi. Kahvaltısı çok lezzetliydi. İlk deneyimizde çok güzel tercih yapmışız.

Cons:

Sadece klimanın olmaması eksiklik yaratıyor diye düşündüm ama geceleri temmuz ayına göre çok soğuktu hiç klima aramadık.

Pros:

Lage war super. Zimmer Richtung Hinterhof sehr ruhig. Klimaanlage war bei der Hitze toll. Sauber mit Kaffee und Tee.

Cons:

Für uns hats super gepasst, nur barrierefrei war es nicht und mit Kinderwagen auch etwas schwierig, da ein paar Stufen zu überwinden sind.

A great place to stay.
Pros:

This hotel is right in the old town and is very close to all shops cafes etc. our rooms were airconditioned which made our stay doubly comfortable as it hit 37 degrees and there about during our 4 day stay. It was hot … coming back to a cool room and being able to sleep made such a difference to our stay doubly comfortable.

Cons:

Can’t think of anything really. Breakfast which was included in our room fee was simply but very adequate.

Pros:

Merkeze çok yakın. Fakat gerekli mi bilmiyorum. 3 araçlık park yeri var. 18€ gecelik.

Cons:

Park yeri az. Kahvaltı çeşidi ve tatlı pasta türü yok. Sabah 11 de çıkış yaparken arabayı da çıkarmanız gerekiyor. Biraz dolaşayım sonra alırım diyemiyorsunuz. Bize 1 saat zor izin verdiler. Bence eski şehirde kalmak gerekmiyor. Park sorunu bar ve pteller çok pahalı. Odada klima yok. Haziran olmasına rağmen sıcaktan uyuyamadık. Buzdolabı yok. Balkon yok. Bunları bilerek gelin.
