Als altijd heel fijn, ga volgende keer wel om kamer met raam dat open kan vragen
Pros:

Centrale ligging, heel aardig personeel, goed georganiseerd

Cons:

Dit was de zesde keer in dit hotel en voor het eerst had ik een kamer met een raam dat niet naar buiten keek maar naar een binnenplein/kledingzaak. Raam kon ook niet open. Was wel superrustig en daardoor prima geslapen

Zimmer sehr gut - der Rest eher dürftig. Aber die Lage in der Stadt war top!
Pros:

DAS Zimmer war erstaunlich geräumig und gut eingerichtet. Für das Früstück gab es aber nich geeigenete Tische.

Cons:

Es gab keinen eigentlichen Früstücksraum,. Man musste in der Lobby früstücken, was ungemütlich war.

Alsazia da vivere
Pros:

La struttura è centralissima e molto comoda per potersi muovere. Pulita e lo staff è molto efficiente e cordiale. Rapporto qualità prezzo ineguagliabile

Cons:

La mia camera era un po scomoda perché priva di un piccolo scrittoio per poter appoggiare diversi oggetti. Lamento la mancanza di un bicchiere per poter mettere al suo interno spazzolini e dentifrici. Non ho apprezzato aver trovato il rotolo di carta igienica già utilizzato

Gute Lage, aber verbesserungsfähige Ausstattung.
Pros:

Gute, zentrale Lage, ruhige große Zimmer.

Cons:

Nur ein einziger großer Esstisch zum Frühstücken. Alle anderen Gäste müssen im Lounge-Bereich auf niedrigen Sesseln an niedrigen Tischchen unbequem essen, es sei denn, man kann draußen sitzen. Das Frühstück ist mittelmäßig. Teppichboden im Zimmer, sehr kleines Bad, Klimaanlage reagierte nicht auf andere Einstellung.
