Sehr zentral, nahe Wege, alles zu Fuss, sehr gutes Frühstück, nettes Personal
Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr zentral - man hat sehr nahe Wege. Auch ideal zum Jogging. Das Frühstücksbuffet war sehr gut, das Personal erfüllte einem fast jeden Wunsch.

Cons:

Die Einrichtungen sind ein wenig älter, hat aber durchaus auch Charme. Verkehr war teilweise hörbar.

Pros:

Hotel in pieno centro, comodissimo per visitare tutti i principali monumenti della città. Vicino a tanti locali e alla stazione della metro . Camera se pur un po’ piccola era dotata di ogni comfort e pulitissima . Letto e cuscini comodissimi ma la cosa che mi porterebbe a dare più di 10 come voto è la colazione abbondante e soprattutto c’è la possibilità di farsi preparare qualcosa gluten free , praticamente il signore che gestiva la cucina mi preparava ogni mattina pancake, muffin e dolci tipici ragion per cui raccomanderei ancor di più questo meraviglioso hotel .

Not value for money
Pros:

Great location. Comfortable bed.

Cons:

Not worth the money: strangely laid out room (with about six inches between the end of the bed and the wall, making getting around it a squeeze) with old, not antique, furniture; small, old-fashioned bathroom with shower over bath.

Old City Charm
Pros:

Staff was always very helpful. I loved our top floor room and the coziness of the space. Bathroom was small, but it is an older building. Location is great if you want to be in the Old City. Would book again!

Cons:

Nothing.
