Pros:

리셉션에 있는 직원언니들이 다 너무 친절했어요! 필요한 것도 미리 물어봐주시고, 머무는 동안 편안했어요. 그리고 위치가 너무 좋아서, 잠깐 시내돌아다니다가 힘들면 들어와서 방에서 좀 쉬고 다시 나가서 관광도 하고 그랬어요~ 방은 딱 그 가격 가성비 맞아요, 근데 큰방 원하시면 다른 호텔 추천드려요, 약간 폐쇄공포증이나 답답한거 싫어하시는 분들은 머무시기 힘든 조건의 방들이다... 여튼 전반적으로 가성비 맞았어요~

Pros:

Perfeckt Lage für einen kurzen Stadturlaub.
Waren im 6ten stock, sehr gute Aussicht.
Nettes Personal.
Gutes Restaurant im Erdgeschoss.

Cons:

Frühstück war ok aber nichts überragendes.
Brot und Semmeln könnten verbessert werden.
Im Zimmer 605 ist die Brausestange ind der Badewanne nur mit Tesa repariert. 🤔
