Pros:

Veldig bra beliggenhet, sentralt i forhold til alt. Veldig bra rom, stort og komfortabelt. God frokost.

Cons:

Synd at parkering er litt "trøblete". Veldig få plasser på hotellet, og dyrt å parkere.

Pros:

No AC and stuffy air in the room, had to open the windows. With the windows opened, very noisy during the night. Also, construction in the hotel starts before 8:30 a.m. I had very little sleep during the two nights there.

Pros:

Das Hotel liegt zentral in der Nähe des Bahnhofs, vor der Haustür fahren viele Buslinien ab. Das Zimmer war komfortabel und das Frühstück sehr gut: Ein abwechslungsreiches Buffet mit vielen frischen Speisen.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind ab 16 Uhr garantiert - das war die knappe und streng wiederholte Ansage, als wir zwei Stunden zu früh nach langer Reise ankamen. Kein „Ich schaue mal nach, ob es schon bereit ist“ oder „nehmen Sie doch einfach einen Kaffee, während Sie warten“. Zum Glück war dieser behördenwürdige Auftritt der einzige schlechte Eindruck, den wir bekamen.

Fijn verblijf met ons gezin
Pros:

Ruime familiekamer

Cons:

Kleinere badkamer, voor families misschien net iets te klein. Desondanks wel prima te doen en erg netjes

Pros:

De accommodatie ligt op ongeveer 2 minuten lopen van het centrum. Het personeel was erg vriendelijk en de kamer was schoon en comfortabel.

Cons:

Ik vind het onredelijk dat je als hotelgast nog extra moet betalen om je auto te parkeren. € 30,- per dag voor parkeren vind ik bovendien behoorlijk veel.

Sehr schönes Hotel, freundliche, kompetente Mitarbeiterinnen, super central
Pros:

Top Lage, schöne Ausstattung

Cons:

Klimaanlage brummte sehr laut, ließ sich nicht ausschalten. Und dann generelles Hotel-Problem: diese hell leuchtenden Feuermelder, das könnte doch irgendwie auch anders gehen?
