Friendly but old-fashioned Hotel near city center

Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A A

The hotel is divided in an old and a new part. My room was located in the old one. The furnishing and the interior was quite old-fashioned and run-down, except a flat-screen TV. Old carpets and wood paneling on the ceiling and in the whole tiny bath-room. The shower was of linoleum, which was already torn in the corner and cheaply fixed with a kind of plasticine. Joyful showering means something else to me.
On entering the room was quite chilly, but I assume that the room hadn't be used very much the weeks before my stay. On the first use the tap water poured out in brown colour, which improved quickly and was normal after a few seconds. The bed itself was okay. There was quite a bit of dust behind the extra couch. TV was good. Free Wifi Internet, but rather slow.
The hotel staff was very nice and helpful. The breakfast buffet was good.
I haven't seen the rooms in the new part of the hotel, but colleagues told me they were better, but also not cream of the crop.
