Oldy worldy hotel in an ideal location for exploring Graz
Pros:

Old quirky hotel, fabulous location in the center of Graz.

Cons:

Floor in the hotel room was VERY noisy - loudly creaked with every footstep. The shower water was very inconsistent - boiling one second and then freezing the next second. Breakfast wasn't really worth the money - pastries were hard and no way we ate/drank 23 euro's worth every day.

Kaupunkiloma lähellä kaikkea
Pros:

Oikein viehättävä interiööri ja loistava sijainti. Hyvä aamiainen. Ystävällinen henkilökunta vaihtoi mukisematta erittäin meluisan yhden hengen huoneen sellaiseen, jossa toisen puolen naapurihuoneessa ei majoittujia. Hotelli ei siis ollut täysi, koska tällainen onnistui.

Cons:

Yhden hengen huoneissa (ikkunat kadulle päin) olematon äänieristys, ja pohjapiirustuksen perusteella hyvin ohuet seinät. Kyseessä lienee myöhemmin tehdyt pikku huoneet. Kuulin huoneeseen naapurien puheen (tunnistin kielen), yskimisen ja television äänet. Puhuin kyseisten naapureiden kanssa, jotka totesivat television olevan tavallisella voimakkuudella päällä eivätkä he mielestäni olleet mitään juhlijoita. Varatkaa siis isompia huoneita.

Great location
Pros:

Excellent location right next to the main square. Comfortable, quiet room.

Cons:

When you enter the room, there's a small foyer with doors to the bedroom, WC, and bathroom. The light comes on automatically with motion detection and it's very bright. Convenient until you're blinded in the middle of the night on your way to the WC! Very annoying.

Pros:

Der Lichthof mit dem Frühstücksraum hat eine tolle Atmosphäre. Das Frühstück wae sehr abwechslungsreich.

Es gab keine Aussicjt, da das Zimmer nur Fenster zu einem kleinen Innemhof hatte. Aber dafür war es dann sehr ruhig....das war mir wichtiger.

Pros:

Skvelé raňajky s bohatým výberom pre každého. Priestranná izba. Moderná kúpeľňa s veľkou vaňou a primeraným tlakom v sprche. Lokalita priamo v centre, iba pár minút chôdze od Murinsel a Schlossbergbahn. Možnosť celodenného parkovania v blízkom nákupnom centre.

Nie polecam
Pros:

Sniadanie i lokalizacja ok

Cons:

Pokoj. Szyby były zaklejone taśma, przez co miałam odczucie ze jestem w szpitalu psychiatrycznym. Za takie pieniadze to nie do pomyslenia.
