Pros:

Perfeckt Lage für einen kurzen Stadturlaub.
Waren im 6ten stock, sehr gute Aussicht.
Nettes Personal.
Gutes Restaurant im Erdgeschoss.

Cons:

Frühstück war ok aber nichts überragendes.
Brot und Semmeln könnten verbessert werden.
Im Zimmer 605 ist die Brausestange ind der Badewanne nur mit Tesa repariert. 🤔
