Bei dem Wasser zú schlafen....
Pros:

Great value for money. Right beside a gorgeous fast river. Very convenient location. Clean, good bathroom. Three excellent restaurants within an easy stroll. A very decent breakfast was included with our room. Would stay again, would recommend to friends.

Cons:

We should have researched the buses because if we'd caught the number 18 we wouldn't have had to drag our suitcases over all the cobbles. The public transport within reach is excellent and the hotel offered us a discount code that made getting around easier. There's supposed to be free WiFi too but we couldn't connect to it anywhere we were. There's some building work on the landward side and a small amount of noise associated. Contact the property to make sure you have the aspect you want.
