Viel zu teuer für das wenige was geboten wird.
Cons:

Ich war mehrmals in dieser Unterkunft und zwar zum halben Preis. Dann ist die sehr einfache Möblierung erträglich. Für 100 Euro pro Nacht, die ich jetzt bezahlen musste (und die Festwochen sind schon vorbei gewesen!) ist das eine Unverschämtheit.

Pros:

El Edificio y la recepción son bastante bonitos, pero no corresponden con los cuartos, que son muy austeros, parecen de refugio alpino; el precio se me hizo muy alto, tomando en cuenta además, que no incluye desayuno y solo hay café soluble disponible en el piso de abajo…si regreso a Saltzburgo buscaría otra opción

Pros:

The staff was very friendly and helpful, cheers to them. The location was great, a short walking distance to anywhere in the old town. The bathroom was clean. The cakes in the morning were delicious 😋

Cons:

There wasn't a hairdryer in the room, which is much needed when the weather is chilly. The bed was very squeaky and a little uncomfortable. There was a second bed in the room, in which the bedding was covered with hair and dust. Although the bed I slept on looked clean, it was a little disturbing.

Super Rõssl
Pros:

Die Lage ist großartig, das Personal sehr freundlich und kompetent, das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis zu Festspielzeit gut und im kleinen Hof mit Tischen kann man mitgebrachtes Essen konsumieren. Wie immer ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt.

Pros:

The apartment is located at the city center, and all the attractions are nearby. The staff were very friendly and gave us local transport passes which are valid till Bad Ischl ( to Halstatt). The room was very comfy. They even had some instant coffee, cakes, and tea in the pantry room. Overall, we highly recommend this property.
