Tolles, modernes Hotel in bester Lage mit sehr gutem Frühstück; empfehlenswert!

Das Hotel hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen; beste Lage, freundliches Personal, tolle Zimmer, super Frühstück. Hervorzuheben ist auch die unkomplizierte Buchung und Verwaltung über die Hotel-App und dass sämtliche Öffentliche Verkehrsmittel für die Dauer des Aufenthaltes gratis benutzt werden konnten.

Modern, freundlich, zentral und trendy - ideal für mich und Wendy.
Pros:

Design, Atmosphäre, Frühstück, Personal, zentrale Lage, Bett, Dusche

Cons:

Da zentral auch laut (Strasse, Bahnhof, Baustelle); eher warm im Zimmer zum Schlafen (Oktober); alles übers Handy gesteuert ist etwas anstrengend.
