OK für einen kurzen Städtetrip aber eindeutig zu teuer.
Pros:

Nettes Personal, leichter Check In und die Lage.

Cons:

Kein Fernseher, altes Mobiliar. Teilweise hingen kleine Regale nur noch an einer Schraube. Nicht alle Steckdosen haben funktioniert. Außerdem hatte die Dusche keinen Vorhang, so dass das ganze Bad unter Wasser stand. Auf Nachfrage bei einer wirklich sehr netten Dame meinte diese, dass aus hygienischen Gründen keine Duschvorhänge vorhanden waren. Erschlossen hat sich mir diese Begründung jedoch nicht. Für 100 Euro / Nacht war das nicht akzeptabel.

Ich werde nicht noch einmal Gast in diesem Hotel!!!
Cons:

Wenn man den Eingang reinkommt, riecht es stark nach Reinigungsmittel, das war sehr unangenehm! Es gab nichts außer 2 Betten und ein Schrank im Zimmer. Das Bad ist sehr klein.

Good for a few nights if you are looking for a room with a good price and close to the city center
Pros:

The room has an excellent location close to the city center, you can go by foot.
The value for money was quite good due to its location and for a room for two people.
The check-in and check-out were very simple.

Cons:

The mattress was a bit too hard for me, but for my colleague it was fine. However, the pillows were quite uncomfortable. We were both with a neck pain after a few nights of sleep. There was a very strong smell coming from the piper probably, which gave the room quite an unpleasant smell.

Pros:

Proche centre ville

Cons:

Pas de rideaux de douches. Isolement sonore mauvais. Ils fournissent un gel douche unitaire que je n'ai pas vu dans un premier temps car il était poser au dessus du lavabo a mains mais j'aurai préféré un vrai pot j'ai fini par utiliser le gel pour les mains.
