Pros:

Sehr zentrale Lage am Bahnhof, Zimmer trotzdem ruhig dank schallisolierter Fenster. Mittels speziellem Gerät, das Luft von aussen ansaugt, kann man bei Bedarf nachts lüften ohne das Fenster zu öffnen.
Wir durften unser Auto nach dem Auschecken kostenlos bis zu unserer Abfahrt in der Tiefgarage stehen lassen. Parken kostet pro Nacht 8,50 € und muss vorab angefragt werden.
Kleiner familiärer Frühstücksraum, alles da, was man fürs Frühstück braucht.
Zimmer kosten übrigens am Wochenende weniger als in der Woche.

Cons:

War alles prima.

Jederzeit wieder im Hotel Central
Pros:

Die absolut super Lage zwischen Bahnhof und Stadtzentrum. Alles ist fußläufig erreichbar.
Die Tiefgarage ist über einen Autoaufzug zu erreichen, aber gut machbar.
Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und sehen relativ neu aus.

Cons:

Leider gibt es im Hotel keinen Aufzug, ist aber auch kein Problem bei 2 Stockwerken.
