Very clean property with great, knowledgeable staff. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby, and the hotel also offered discounts to four restaurants that were close by. Wonderful, safe place to stay!
Excellent location
Small room but functional
Acceptable bed and pillows
Clean and warm
Good value at the cheaper end of accommodation in the area
Excellent Breakfast
Good hotel. Breakfast was at a restaurant down the street. You got a little container of yoghurt with granola and fruit and you got to choose a meal, a hot beverage, and a cold beverage. It was very good and filling! The room was very big and clean with a nice balcony. The only downside was that the curtains let in a lot of light in the morning. Across the street is a furnicular that brings you next to a parking garage. If coming with the car, I recommend parking here. Walking from the parking garage to the hotel is ok. But from the hotel to the garage is all uphill so taking the furnicular is recommended if you have luggage.

Overall, our stay at the hotel was ok, thanks to its central and walkable location. However, we faced some frustrating issues with the electronic door handles, which often didn’t work, leaving us stuck for hours. Fortunately, a staff member eventually provided us with a key fob that worked.
I recommend asking for a fob upon check-in to avoid this hassle. Additionally, we were misled about breakfast being free; it came with an extra charge. Despite these challenges, the location made for an enjoyable stay.
The hotel stay was good and average in general. For most of the things except the few following, there is no parking around or very expensive parking, breakfast is not in the same building, you need to walk to the other hotel, which was old and breakfast was below average in my opinion. And the last one is, there is live music right next to the hotel every single night until 2200-2300..

Super zentrale Lage, sehr nettes Personal, alles sauber. Essenmöglichkeiten direkt neben dem Hotel. Frühstück aber in einem anderen Hotel und leider keine eigene Parkplätze.
Wunderschöne große Zimmer. Leckeres Frühstück.
Leider war mir und auch den Angestellten nicht klar, ob man vor dem Hotel zum Be- und Endladen halten darf. Gerade bei längeren Aufenthalten mit Kindern kann das zu einem Problem werden.
Alles in allem hatten wir uns mehr erhofft. Die Zimmer sind sehr hellhörig , wir hatten den Blick zu den Mülltonnen des Nachbarrestaurants.
Leider zog der Küchengestank ins Zimmer. Durch die Tür des Zimmers schien das Flurlicht des Korridors. Die Lage des Hotels top, auch die Mitarbeiterin sehr freundlich. Es war sehr sauber.
