Pros:

Es ist mitten im Zentrum, man befindet sich direkt beim Bazar.
Das Zimmer war gut, sobald Koffer da rumliegen wird es etwas eng.
Das Badezimmer ist renoviert und sieht gut aus.
Im Hotel gibt es ein älteres Paar, sie waren sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Dieses Hotel würde ich auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.

Ein Parkhaus befindet sich grad beim Hotel und ist sehr günstig. Habe für knapp 12h 4 Euro bezahlt.

Cons:

Unser Zimmer war im 4. OG, was etwas schwierig ist mit schweren Koffer hochzugehen.
