Für eine Übernachtung war alles in Ordnung (bis auf das Frühstück)
Pros:

Die Zimmer entsprachen dem Standard.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war sehr mäßig. Lieblos zubereitet - es wurde bereits um 09 Uhr kaum noch etwas nachgelegt. Quark oder Joghurt war nicht verfügbar. Der Kaffee war nicht gut.

Return stay
Pros:

The food has improved enormously it is under change of ownership and food excellent.

Cons:

We're placed in room 105 directly above bin area. Tried to have afternoon siesta but bin area was noisy for about 20 minutes around 4 pm.

Nightmare with hot water in the morning needs swift solution that ruined our stay to be honest was told it's an old building and pump doesn't function correctly. Would prevent our return if not sorted out.

Needs attention to detail and hot water system
Pros:

Good staff

Cons:

The hotel is very old and the hot water system was not working well. I had a shower that went cold before I could wash the soap off and my wife wouldn't have one. This is an essential component of a hospitality venue.
The room had stuff that needed fixing.
Not happy.
I wouldn't recommend this hotel
