prima hotel vriendelijk personeel
Pros:

vriendelijk personeel werken hard en denken mee, de locatie is TOP! je steekt de straat over en loopt het centrum in.

Cons:

Prijs/Kwaliteitverhouding viel tegen dit had ook alles te maken met de E-World Messe normaal gesproken zijn de hotels veel minder duur nu € 300 / nacht betaald wat niet in verhouding stond

Locatie perfect, maar de kapotte douche deed afbreuk.
Pros:

De locatie was perfekt. Op loopafstand van het centrum.

Cons:

De afvoer van de badkuip liep niet goed door en 's morgens kwamen we er achter dat de omschakelknop van de badkraan niet werkte, waardoor douchen niet mogelijk was.
