Pros:

Sehr gute Betten, Dusche mit Druck und warm wasser.

Cons:

Trotz Fensterlose zimmerbuchung war immer noch ein wenig von außenlärm zu hören. Zum Glück waren nicht viele Zimmer in meiner nähe belegt.

Die Unterkunft liegt wirklich sehr zentral. Wir haben alles zu Fuß erreicht. Es gibt einen Fahrstuhl und einen Wasserspender. Es sieht so wie auf den Bildern aus.
