The people are friendly and attentive. The property is well maintained. It is close enough to the altstadt that walking everywhere was no problem. The food recommendation from the receptionist “krokodil” was not very good and overpriced. Plenty of better places a short distance away. Otherwise all was great!

Triple room was quite large, had comfortable beds, funky lighting and a functional bathroom with good hot water supply. There was a portable air conditioner provided. Kitchenette did not have a microwave or cooking utensils, but still useful. We enjoyed the daily breakfast (17 euros). Staff were all very friendly and efficient. Short 5 min walk to transport and amenities. Quite a bit further to the old town, bridge and castle

This was a clean hotel with sizable room, we were 3 guests staying in a room. The bathroom was well equipped and there was AC for the summer days. The staff were very helpful in storing our luggage after checkout. The checkin time is 2 PM which was a bit late for us, as we had travelled a long distance, would be nice to have a earlier checkin time

The area around the location was under some construction and it made it challenging for us to locate the hotel. Parking was available on the street and we were able to purchase a parking pass for 5 euro. The hotel is simple, the shower is deep, and the beds are hard. The portable AC was welcomed, but be forewarned there's no central air here.

Enjoyable stay

Clean and comfortable hotel. Minimal staff contact as we never had breakfast so only check in (Handed an i pad) and checkout done manually. The staff were helpful and courteous when we did have contact. Only downside was the rooms were very hot even with the large fan that was supplied. apart from that a very comfortable stay. A 15 minute to many shops and nice restaurants.
