Hotel muy recomendable
Pros:

Nos gustó la habitación que nos tocó, estaba amplia con una cama Queen y dos camas individuales en una área un poco a parte , el baño amplio y la ubicación nos gustó mucho, cerca de la estación de trenes y llegas caminando a todo.

Cons:

El desayuno es muy básico, consta de cafés, jugo, leche, jamones, quesos , huevos duros, yogurt , granola , algunas frutas , pan artesanal y mermelada
Considero que deberían agregar algún platillo caliente y mas verduras.

Gerne wieder
Pros:

Das Personal war top, super freundlich, herzlich und hilfsbereit, sowohl an der Reception wie auch im Restaurant. Das Flair ebenso, die Lage genial. Das Abendessen im Restaurant exzellent.

Cons:

Es ist sehr ringhörig. Man hört jedes noch so kleine Geräusch aus dem Nachbarzimmer. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist sehr lahm und unspektakulär, qualitativ eher so 2 Sterne.
