Tolles Hotel, frisch renoviert, nettes Personal, sauber Frühstück muss man überlegen ob man bereit ist anschließend noch
Pros:

Das Personal die Zimmer und die gesamte Aufmachung des Hotels sind hervorzuheben. Es war sauber, das Personal super nett und hilfsbereit. Das Hotel ist frisch renoviert und sieht dadurch schick aus. Das Frühstück war lecker und auch sehr viel Auswahl. Auch eine kostenlose Tiefgarage ist verfügbar.

Cons:

Das Frühstück wurde mit 6,90€/Tag/Person betitelt allerdings wurde am letzten Tag beim bezahlen noch die Steuern aufgeschlagen. Also intransparent kommuniziert. Schade finde ich das das Frühstück nicht fix in den Hotelpreis berechnet wird. Das ist auf jedenfall Verbesserungswürdig.

Very nice
Pros:

Location was good. Good restaurants nearby. Shower was great.

Cons:

Parking was very steep and tight but luckily we didn’t have any issues. If you are driving make sure to check in before driving down the ramp to the garage.

Pros:

L'hôtel est assez proche du centre. Quelques bons restaurants alentours. Calme et bien équipé. Le petit déjeuner est copieux. Le personnel est attentif. Le parking souterrain est vaste et il y a toujours de la place.

Cons:

Juste un détail la minuterie du parking souterrain ne tient que quelques secondes et est très intermittente.

Pros:

La limpieza , buen desayuno, las ventanas que cierran muy bien y no se oye nada. Reformado, moderno ,tal cual a las fotos.

Cons:

La ubicación,tiene dos carreteras de 4 carriles por dos lados,pero sobre todo( y de eso no tiene culpa el hotel) el entorno está muy descuidado.. aceras con adoquines levantados, no barren, no quitan hierbas..peor que mi pueblo. Caminando llegas al centro en 25mn.
