Good location but otherwise not worth the bother.
Pros:

Location, cleanliness.

Cons:

Breakfast was expensive and really poor - no hot food at all. Room was tiny and Spartan but at least it was clean. Lift started on 1st floor so you had to lug heavy bags up a flight of stairs.

Pros:

Zentrale Lage

Cons:

Zentrale Lage, direkt neben Partylokal.
Die Band hat zwar um 23h pünktlich aufgehört, aber die Menschen auf den Strassen, Samstagabend gar nicht.
Ein höllischer Lärm ohne Ende....

Great central location close to all the nightlife, shops, cafes, restaurants, places of interest
Pros:

Great location in the centre of the City. Large room with kettle, tea & coffee. Lovely shower, TV in room. Very friendly welcoming staff

Cons:

Not the easiest to find. Lighting in the room wasn't great. Couldn't open the window as it was noisy at night due to a bar playing loud music over the road but you have to expect this being in the centre of the city
