Great location!
Pros:

Excellent location - close to main station and the heart of the old & new town. The staff were very friendly. And despite my comments of what I didn't like, I would definitely stay here again just for the location alone!

Cons:

Hotel had no Aircon. The room was smaller than I expected and extremely hot! Admittedly, Europe was experiencing a heat wave. The hotel did supply a free standing fan but it hardly helped. Under normal summer temperatures, I guess the room would've been more amenable. Breakfast was quite basic (usual continental selection of bread, rolls, cheese, salami type meats & yogurts) but fresh. This is an old hotel so I guess difficult for the owners to upgrade.

Carino ma senza grosse aspettative
Pros:

Hotel in posizione molto comoda vicino alla stazione centrale e al centro. Camera di dimensioni ragionevoli per una singola.

Cons:

In camera non c'era l'aria condizionata ma solo un ventilatore e la colazione non era compresa. Con la cifra pagata mi sarei aspettata entrambe le cose.

It was a good choice.
Pros:

It's a great location - close to the Hauptbahnhof so you can walk to it with your luggage. It's in a lively area - cafes, etc but also nice to walk around. I'd like to spend more time there.

Cons:

No complaints.

Not a place for summer stays
Pros:

Location is hard to beat. Just a short walk all from train station right near/in the Old Town, close ton restaurants, cafes, shops, etc.

Cons:

The biggest negative here is no air conditioning, only a fan and a window that could be opened (though onto a busy traffic area). In summer that means a very warm room that makes sleep difficult and even just staying comfortable. Rooms are also a little small though not such a big deal.

The location is good especially you need to train and tram to go around the city. But the room was too small for a famil
Pros:

We like the location of this hotel, it is near to the train station and restaurants.

Cons:

No A/C and the room is too small for us especially if you have a lot of luggages, no room to place them.

Localização perfeita.
Pros:

Muito perto da estação central de trem e ao lado de várias conexões de trens urbanos.
A localização é no início da cidade velha, muito legal mesmo.
O pessoal foi bem atencioso, e o café da manhã muito completo e gostoso.

Cons:

Não me atrapalho, mas pessoas com dificuldade de locomoção terá problemas, pois existe uma escadaria na entrada.
Os quartos ficam de frete para uma rua bem movimentada e barulhenta, e no calor do verão não tem como dormir de janela fechada.
