Harika konum
Pros:

Konum olarak cok iyiydi, merkezde heryere yürüyerek ulasilabiliyordu. Temiz ve herses yeterliydi. Calisanlardaa tatli ve samimilerdi.

Cons:

Cocuklar biraz ziplayinca sallanmasi bizi ürküttü, ancak sordugumuzda o bölgede binalarin cok eski oldugunu ve bunun normal oldugunu söyledir.

Schlecht
Cons:

Problem war , wenn man morgens den Zimmerschlüssel abgegeben hat und nach 23.00 Uhr zurückkommt, muß man den Nebeneingang benutzen, ohne Möglichkeit den Schlüssel zu bekommen. Die Zwischentür war verschlossen.

Pros:

Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und die Lage ist toll,
.die Bettwäsche war sauber

Cons:

Die Zimmerausstattung ist alt und abgewohnt. Im Badezimmer wackelt der Handtuchhalter, es gibt Schimmel in den Fugen, die Duschabtrennumg ist eckelig. Im Zimmer ist Teppich ausgelegt, der dringend erneuert werden müsste.
Schade, denn eigentlich ein tolles Haus.
Auch die Matratze sollte erneut werden

Prettig verblijf in het mooie oude centrum
Pros:

Vriendelijke staf, dicht in het centrum, prima ontbijt

Cons:

Parkeren: er stond op de website dat je kon parkeren maar dat was dus een parkeergarage in de stad. Was niet helemaal duidelijk op de website.

Schlaflos !
Pros:

Frühstück war sehr gut und die Lage optimal

Cons:

Genau am Hotel im EG oder UG ist ein Disco.
Die Musik war sehr laut und es ging bis 4 morgen.
Wegen eines Termins musste ich kurz nach 8 Uhr raus. Habe insgesamt vielleicht 3 Stunden geschlafen. Für's Wochenende ist das Hotel wegen lauter Musik nicht zu empfehlen.
