Clean and great location
Pros:

The location is good and it’s very clean

Cons:

The shower walls are made of seethrough glass facing the bedroom and the toilet door is just slightly mist glass facing the shower. In essence, a bathroom with zero privacy. Good job I was travelling solo!

Pros:

Vicino al centro

Cons:

Per 2 notti c’è stata una festa nel teatro al piano terra dell’hotel e non si è potuto dormire. Ho chiesto allo staff una soluzione ma si sono limitati a dirmi che: “la festa sarebbe finita alle 2 del mattino , di avere pazienza…”

Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr gut. Wien-Mitte sowie die Tram 1 ist guter Nähe.

Cons:

Die gläserne Toilette ist ein No-Go. Da da Zimmer groß genug war, hätte man hier eine separate Toilette planen können.
Der Empfang/Bar/ Frühstücksraum ist recht dunkel und klein. Die zwar schönen, aber nicht so bequemen Tonet-Stühle laden micht zum verweilen ein. Das Frühstück ist im Vergleich zu anderen 4-Sterne Hotels etwas schlechter.
