Das gesamte Ambiente war hervorragend und annehmbar. Ich habe mich so wohl gefühlt, das ich noch eine Nacht nach gebucht hatte.
Es ist wirklich sehr zu empfehlen.
Und, es gab eine besetzte Rezeption, also ist ein ansprechender Mitarbeiter ständig vor Ort

Cons:

Nicht gefallen hat mir.... dazu fällt mich nichts ein

Excellent location and friendly staff made my stay very enjoyable.
Pros:

The location of this property is excellent. Very close to Hauptbahnhof and therefore extremely convenient.
The room was spotless and comfortable. The staff was extremely welcoming and super friendly.

Cons:

The downside to being close to the train station is that you can obviously hear the trains. If you are noise sensitive this might be a problem. Also the room did not have AC which was a shame as this years summer is extremely hot.

Un forno
Pros:

La posizione era molto comoda.

Cons:

La stanza non aveva l’aria condizionata, era un forno. Una finestra su 2 non si apriva e l’altra era davvero difficile da tenere aperta. Il divano letto era scomodo.
