Pros:

Le lit été confortable chambre propre .

Cons:

mais le petit déjeune pas très copieux pour un prix élevé
Les panecake ont dirais été sorti du congélateur pas assez de variété . Nous sommes parti déjeuné à 9 h20 et on avait l impression qu il reste plus rien . Nous avons été très déçus du petit déjeune
Et le système du parking pas très avantageux au moins si y avais un prix abordable pour la nuit d hôtel jusqu’à chek out 12 h
Car devoir payée des supplément c est pas agréable

Okay für Städte Trip
Pros:

Das Zimmer hat uns gefallen. Alles andere im Hotel ist momentan eine Baustelle oder schonen die Jahre gekommen. Dementsprechend waren Flure abgehängt und der erste Eindruck eingeschränkt.

Cons:

Wie beschrieben. Dadurch konnten wir beim Frühstück den Innenhof nicht nutzen

The toilet was dirty, someone used it and left toilet paper in it. Smells like someone has been smoking a lot in the room. Rooms need renovation
