Not a good hotel
Pros:

Location was great

Cons:

They charged soo much for parking which I think they shouldn’t be allowed. It took me ages to get out of the parking. No air conditioning and breakfast wasn’t really that nice. I wouldn’t stay here again

Overall okay.
Pros:

Overall, we had a pleasant stay at Hotel Karl. The breakfast was good and offered a nice selection. The only downside was that the location was not very convenient, making it a bit challenging to get around and access some attractions.

Cons:

Overall, our stay at Hotel Karl was disappointing in a few key areas. The location was not very convenient, and the room felt quite humid, which affected comfort. Additionally, there was an issue where someone entered our room despite the “Do Not Disturb” sign being displayed, and the reception mentioned it was management access, even though there was no emergency. These concerns impacted the overall experience.
