Für mich hat es auf jeden Fall gepasst.
Pros:

Die Lage ist super, weil nahe beim Bahnhof und die Busse vor der Haustüre sind. Ich hatte ein Zimmer nach hinten. Deshalb war es ruhig zum schlafen.
Sehr freundlicher Empfang und unkompliziert.

Cons:

Das Frühstück hat mir nicht sehr gut gefallen. Ich habe frische Vollkornbrötchen vermisst. Auch die Auswahl an Käse war etwas langweilig.

The fellow at the front desk in the evening was very helping opening the transportation ticket on our cell phone. We liked that the bus stop right in front of the hotel
