Pros:

Fremragende service og personale i både restaurant og hotel gjorde opholdet til en sand fornøjelse. Rene og pæne værelser. Meget central beliggenhed med nem adgang til shopping og byliv.

Cons:

Det er en ældre bygning, og der er derfor en restaurering af taget. Det kan give lidt ekstra gener, men jo også dejligt de passer godt på de gamle bygninger.

Beautiful hotel with bad accident!
Pros:

The staff (manager) was very helpful & nice, getting my bedroom door open to help me after I fell in their very beautiful, antique, but very dangerous bathtub. The hotel is old, authentic and very pretty! Breakfast was outstanding!

Cons:

The antique, deep, narrow bathtub floor was as slick as glass. There was no safety bar. I fell backwards, instantly, as soon as the water came on and couldn't get up or out, in the extremely narrow bathtub. A paramedic had to come and get me out. Big bruise on my right arm. I'm still nursing a right knee impact problem/pain a month later from the fall. There was minimum pain that day but has evolved into pain & more, affecting my walking.

Zentrale Lage, für einen Kurzaufenhalt ok
Pros:

Zentrale Lage, bequmes Bett. Ein wirklich gutes und reichhaltiges Frühstück.

Cons:

Das Badezimmer. Es gab eine Badewanne was nicht schlimm ist. Aber leider kein Duschvorhang oder Duschwand. Somit ist immer das ganze Bad nass. Zudem dauert es ca 5 Min bis warmes Wasser kommt. Die Fenster sind sehr dünn, daher kaum Lärmschutz, man hört alles von draußen. Generel ist das Zimmer etwas abgelebt und könnte mal renoviert werden.
