Great for our needs at the price we got
Pros:

The location is perfect, there is an elevator, A/C was strong on a warm day, bathroom was large, everything was easy.

Cons:

Bathroom door is a clear glass with a stripe of privacy which is awkward for traveling with my father. The door does not stop sound and smells. There's a convenient mirror that l let's you see into the bathroom from anywhere in the room so there's literally no privacy. Breakfast pricing has to be a joke. Pre checkin wouldn't work in English and had coding issues. Receptionist seemed unhappy to be working that day.

Für uns war’s richtig toll.
Pros:

Zentrale Lage und Parkmöglichkeit in der TG

Cons:

Raumtemperatur reicht auf 20 Grad runtergekühlt. Das spart auch Energie.

Hotel da evitare (e anche Linz non merita una deviazione)
Pros:

Comodo il parcheggio sotto l'hotel; stanze adeguatamente pulite.

Cons:

Hotel anonimo e piuttosto brutto; personale incapace e decisamente poco accogliente; stanze molto piccole, prive di posto per i vestiti (curiosamente però dotate di asse e ferro da stiro); condizionatore rumoroso; piatti al ristorante di pessima qualità.

Pros:

Super ubytování sotva 5 minut pěšky od centra Lince. Byli jsme na jednu noc a splnilo to naše očekávání.

Cons:

Žádný, max by se hodila aspoň malá lednička (minibar) do pokoje.
