Tolle Lage, empfehlenswert
Pros:

Lage ist super und das Frühstücksbuffet hat einiges an Auswahl - auch für Vegetarier und Veganer!

Cons:

Das Einzige was ich empfehlen würde ist, dass mein Einzelzimmer im Erdgeschoss war und das Licht vom Flur bis 23/24Uhr in mein Schlafzimmer fiel. Auf meinen Wunsch konnte ich aber für den nächsten Tag ein neues Zimmer beziehen.

Pros:

Close to the centre

Cons:

Room was OK, however communication with customers is very bad. We asked for breakfast to be packed for us as we were leaving early morning and we said we are leaving to pay extra as we check in earlier, there was not issue and they told us breakfast will be ready for us. However the arrogant guy on the night shift he cancelled our breakfast and there was nothing for us. At this time at morning no food to buy and we are having 8 hours bus journey with out food.
Also we did not get any apology and receptionist literally laugh to our faces!
So, for next visit I would choose a cheaper hotel with better customer service
