Prima hotel op heftige plek
Pros:

Prima ontbijt, vriendelijk personeel, prima bed en bad.
Midden in de stad, bij het station.

Cons:

We hadden een muis op de kamer, die verder wel schoon was. Dat slaapt niet lekker. Doorgegeven. In de directe omgeving van het hotel, echt direct bij de ingang, heel veel slapers en daklozen. We durfden niet te laat binnen te komen. Voelde wat onveilig. Tja..

Top Lage mit kleineren Abstrichen.
Pros:

Tolle Lage direkt am Hauptbahnhof mit historischem Flair.

Cons:

Lage geht leider auch - je nach Zimmerlage - mit dem Lärm aus der Fußgängerzone einher. Die Zimmer sind leicht beengt und das WLAN in meinem Zimmer war stellenweise sehr fragil.
