Surpresa agradável.
Pros:

Grande surpresa para um hotel de 3 estrelas. Quartos confortáveis, espaço muito bonito com jardim interior, pequeno almoço excelente. A localização também era excelente

Cons:

Não tinha ar condicionado no quarto. Penso que não deve ser normalmente necessário devido a localização, mas na altura que estive lá, estava um pouco de calor e fez um pouco de falta. Mas tinha ventoinha e sistema de aquecimento.

Sehr angenehme Unterkunft + gute Lage
Pros:

Die Möglichkeit, die Zimmerseite direkt auszuwählen (also zur Straße oder zum Garten hin) fanden wir sehr gut. Wir haben uns für die Gartenseite entschieden. Dadurch hatten wir es ruhig. Die Straßenseite können wir nicht beurteilen.
Das Zimmer war nicht sehr groß, die Einrichtung dafür Optimal. Sehr viele Ablagemöglichkeiten, geräuschlose Minibar, alles Top.
Sehr gutes Frühstück mit viel Auswahl, sehr nettes und aufmerksames Personal.
