Zentral in der Fußgängerzone gelegenes Hotel mit Bistro dabei
Pros:

LAGE: Das Hotel liegt in der Fußgängerzone, was die Zufahrt erschwert, aber für den Bummel in der Innenstadt ideal ist.
FRÜHSTÜCK: Das Frühstück lässt keine Wünsche offen, frisch auf der Maschine aufgeschnittener Schinken, Gepäck aller Art, Avocadoaufstrich, Müsli, Obstsalat, frisch zu pressende Säfte, Käseauswahl, alles super.

Cons:

Das Zimmer ist so klein, man kommt rund ums Bett nicht aneinander vorbei.
Für eine Nacht okay, aber ansonsten muss man wohl Comfortzimmer buchen.
