Sehr schönes und besonderes Hotel
Pros:

Sehr nettes Personal. Außerordentlich gutes Frühstücksbuffet.
Zentral zur Innenstadt und dem Hafen!

Cons:

Die Email-Kommunikation am Anfang war etwas stockend. Wir wollten verlängern, was wir dann aber an der Rezeption klären konnten.

Would have loved to stay longer
Pros:

The location was perfect--halfway in between the old town and the modern city. The staff were wonderful to a person. We stayed in the 1-bedroom "apartment" next door, which was an ideal set up for us. It was beyond great to have heated floors in the bathroom--don't laugh, but I laid down on it multiple times during our stay, it felt so good. The breakfast in the next building over was outstanding, and all of the public spaces were so comfortable. And the bartender makes a mean gin and tonic, just saying. :-)

Cons:

The apartment is up 2 flights of stairs, so it's not accesible to travelers with mobility issues.

Perfect Location! Total Value for money!
Pros:

Location! Location! Location. Walking distance to restaurants, harbor, and everything else.

Cons:

The ratio of bathroom to the rest of the area was 1:1. I am not sure if that was the case because it was rooms for the disabled, but I would have expected a bit more space outside and less in the restroom. Also, it would have been nice to have a Hottub on the property (Much easier said that done!)
