Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hat in unserer Abwesenheit unser nachgeliefertes Gepäck von der Airline entgegen genommen und uns über direkt informiert.

Zázemí pro objevování historie Grazu
Pros:

Je to kousek od centra = výborný výchozí bod. Zahrádka ve vnitrobloku je v horku příjemná. Možnost parkování v podzemní garáži. Snídaně bez chyby. A hlavně milá a profesionální obsluha, která zařídila vše i nad rámec běžných zvyklostí = díky!

Cons:

Díky poloze u centra bylo v noci více hluku z dopravy, ale to patří k věci.

Lovely terrace, good breakfast
Pros:

The garden terrace is lovely: shade trees kept it cool in 33° weather. Rooms 12 and 14 are ground level, so easily accessible for mobility-challenged travellers. But they are only two meters from the terrace, so if there are noisy groups there, one can hear them even if the window is closed. The bathroom is spacious and the shower excellent.
Five minutes' walk to the central park and bus stop to the central station. Ten minutes' walk to the university area with many cafes. The breakfast buffet was fresh and varied, but 15 euros per person felt rather high for breakfast. The personnel were helpful and friendly.

Cons:

Big groups on the terrace could be seated farther away from the ground level rooms. Firmer pillows and mattresses would have been more comfortable.
