Idéal pour un week-end, nous reviendrons certainement!
Pros:

L'emplacement est parfait, nous avons laissé notre voiture dans le parking privé et pris nos vélos pour visiter la ville. La chambre est très bien décoré et la terrasse est un petit havre de paix. Les gens à la réception jour et nuit ainsi que ceux au service petit-déjeuner ont été accueillants, chaleureux et très serviables.

Cons:

Seul bémol, les petits pains au petit-déjeuner semblait être ceux de la veille, un peu dur et il aurait fallu réapprovisionner le buffet pour ceux qui se lèvent plus tard (par. exemple il n'y avait plus de saumon, ni de fruits déjà à 9h30).

Pros:

Die Lage war für uns perfekt. Ca. 10 min. zu Fuß zur Kaserne. Wir haben auch ein Gratisticket für die Öffis erhalten. Es gibt nicht viele Parkplätze in der Tiefgarage. Unbedingt vorher reservieren.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war unerträglich heiß. Leider gab es keine Klimaanlage. Der Ventilator hat nicht wirklich viel genützt. Ansonsten alles perfekt.
