10/10 Exceptional

A bit old but clean and functional. Directly next to the lake and city centre.
Mike, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel was very clean, and it was great that we had room service every day. Breakfast options were good. It would be good if they consider renovations of rooms as there is no electrical outlet or usb chargers and perhaps new fridges in the rooms. The water in fridges (which were at a fee) were just a little better than the room tempreature.

einfaches, preiswertes und sauberes Hotel. Leider war es in der Nacht recht lärmig von Personen auf der Strasse und im kleinen Park gegenüber. Allerdingfs war es aber ein Festabend und dahern viele Leute.
