The room was ok; no refrigerator; conventional, old-fashioned key. The biggest issue was Internet access (WLAN). There were no instructions in the room, other than a scan, which does NOT work for laptops (at least not mine)! I had to call; in the end someone brought a paper copy of PASSWORD ETC. to the room.

The hotel and staff did not disappoint! I went just for an overnight stay but enjoyed even this short time. The location is perfect with walking distance to the heart of the city. The room was clean with updated interior. Checkin/out was super easy and the staff very friendly. It's a 3x thumbs up from me :)

Ich habe eigentlich rundum nur positive Eindrücke in Verbindung mit dieser Unterkunft. Sie liegt sehr zentral. Bahnhof, Parkhäuser, Einkaufszeile usw. liegen alle in unmittelbarer Nähe. Wer die engen Verhältnisse alter schwäbischer Ortschaften mag, wird sich hier wohlfühlen. Das Hotel hat einen eigenen Parkplatz und einen Personenaufzug. Es ist sauber und das Personal ist professionell und schwäbisch zurückhaltend freundlich. Das Frühstück war für meine Bedürfnisse OK.
