Cons:

Das Frühstück. Kaffee top,sonst zu einseitig 6 Tage die gleichen geschnittene Früchte. Leider waren die Räume schlecht zu belüften, insbesondere wegen der Innenhoflage. Das Team war allerdings immer freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wenn wir wiederkommen, werden wir allerdings ein höherwertiges Quartier buchen..
