Pros:

Ehrlich gesagt wenig bzw der einzige Vorteil man ist gleich in der Nähe der Fussgängerzone

Cons:

Das Personal mehr als überfordert - da ist aber nicht das Personal schuld, sondern das Management - hier wird wirklich deutlich sichtbar am Personal gespart - das Personal ist gestresst und ziemlich fertig - sie müssen fie Rezeption schupfen, die Bar bedienen und im Speisesaal abräumen und sauber machen - einfach unmenschlich diese Arbeitsbedingungen! Im Zimmer kann man das Fenster nicht öffnen und die Räume sind klein und eng

Der Aufzug eine reine Katastrophe - kam lange nicht bzw das Dr0cken ging schwer - man musste 10x drücken bis es einrastete - dann kam er endlich und es war überfüllt - teilweise bis 10 min gewartet - sehr mühsam

Waren schon in vielen Holiday Inn aber das war definitiv das schlechteste!

Kann ich nicht empehlen
