Pros:

Es ist ein normales Business Hotel nicht weit von der Messe entfernt. Allerdings waren das zu Fuß doch ca. 20 Minuten. Positiv zu erwähnen ist die Tiefgarage und die gut funktionierende Heizung im Bad.

Cons:

An der Bar hatte man leider das Gefühl, man stört das sehr unmotivierte Personal.
Das Bett war für meinen Geschmack extrem hart.
