The hotel has gotten old. Here and there the paint was peeling. We stayed for a weekend. The room and especially the bathroom were very small. If you can speak of a bathroom. It was clean, but maybe 2-3 square meter. All this should have been for the two nights in purchase, if it weren't for the Lautspärke would be. We can only speak from our room (number 114), but it didn't work. Directly in the area by the lobby and a bar open staircase and the two lift …  read more

Four stars the hotel has not deserved. For a city break but ok. Room and bathroom way too small. The rusty drains in the bath are very unpleasant and need to get through new be replaced. Apart from that but clean. Staff at the reception/bar was very friendly. The breakfast buffet was on the first day our trip only with murren and constant excuses refilled. The ordered scrambled/fried eggs came after about half an hour. The scrambled eggs were absolutely not recommendable. They were probably from the package and the taste was missing also. On the 2. day it worked with buffet better, but … read more
