Kein Personal, umständlicher Check-Inn. Für zwei Personen viel zu kleines Bett. Mini-Zimmer. Mini-Bad. Das Klo kann man nur schräg benutzen. Frühstück gibt es überhaupt nicht. Eine 0,5-Liter-Flasche für zwei kann man sich auch sparen.

Convenient to cathedral and train station. Only complaints were the bed was small and not very comfortable, no space for toiletries, and curtains let in a lot of light from the street. Room was clean, modern, and quiet.

Des bonnes choses et d’autres gênantes

Hôtel correct. Très bien sur certains aspects lits confortables, tout pour faire thé et café, situation en centre ville et juste à côté de la gare, en revanche il faut savoir qu’il n’y a pas d’ascenseur et la propreté de la moquette est moyenne, odeur désagréable dans la salle de bain et le wifi ne fonctionnait pas donc la télé non plus. Notre chambre avait une terrasse très agréable.

Sehr zentral zum dom und zum Hauptbahnhof, doppelzimmer large hatte eine super Größe und war sehr sauber. Kritikpunkte eigentlich nur ein sehr sehr kleines badezimmer für große menschen die dusche nicht zu empfehlen. Und keine klima im Zimmer. War sehr warm. Aber es war ein Ventilator im zimmer vorhanden . Im ganzen würde ich es wieder buchen. Lage und preis perfekt
