Pros:

I stayed here about a week ago and it was great. The staff where really pleasant, polite, room was spotless and the breakfast lovely also included in the price. Lots of options. First morning i had a small issue with the sink in the room, called reception and it was fixed in 30mins while i was at breakfast. The hotel bar a good place to relax in the evening.

Cons:

The only Con i would say is that the noise from the bars around the hotel can be a bit loud at night but nothing the hotel can do about that.

Kiváló!
Pros:

Nagyon jól éreztük magunkat a hotelben! A szállás tiszta, rendezett és igazán kulturált volt, a központi elhelyezkedése pedig egyszerűen szuper. Szinte mindenhova gyalog el tudtunk jutni, így nagyon kényelmes volt a városnézés. Különösen örültünk annak, hogy a dupla ablakoknak köszönhetően a szoba csendes volt, pedig forgalmas helyen található a hotel. Minden nap friss törölközőt kaptunk, megigazították az ágyat, és a takarításra sem lehetett panaszunk. A reggeli teljesen rendben volt, bár egy kicsit nagyobb választéknak még jobban örültünk volna. Összességében nagyon elégedettek voltunk, szívesen visszatérnénk, és bátran ajánljuk másoknak is!

TOP Lage, wenn man ohne einem Auto kommt!
Pros:

Top Lage!
Die Zimmer sind neu, klein und modern
Man hat eine große Auswahl am Frühstücksbuffet
Die Rezeption ist 24/7 besetzt

Cons:

Das Hotel wurde mit Parkplatz beworben, was für unsere Reise mit einem Mietauto ein wichtiger Entscheidungsgrund war. Auf der Homepage steht geschrieben, dass man im nur 1 Min entfernten Q-Parkhaus parken soll und man dann eine Ermäßigung bekommt. Sogar direkt beim Eingang zum Hotel gibt es die Werbung in diesem Parkhaus ermäßigt zu parken. Nur leider stimmt das überhaupt nicht!!! Der Vertrag mit dem Parkhaus ist scheinbar abgelaufen oder man konnte sich nicht einigen. Dem Peronal war es egal, das wir uns ärgerten und zuckten nur mit den Schultern. Schlussendlich wurde es ein teures Vergnügen, da wir für nicht ganz 2 Tage € 92.- zahlen mussten.
