Die Lage ist großartig, die Ausstattung veraltet.
Pros:

Die Lage ist super. Von dort kann man mit den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln überall hin und diese sind schnell zu erreichen. Vor Ort sind verschiedene Lokale für den kleinen und großen Hunger.

Cons:

Das Zimmer ist schon in die Jahre gekommen. Badewanne mit Duschvorhang. Der Teppich war ziemlich zerschlissen.
