    Efficient staff, well soundproofed room, in general I appreciated this gorgeous hotel. It was ideally located for seeing a towered Romanesque cathedral. Chinese cuisine was served in the authentic restaurant.

    I greatly enjoyed convenient placing of a complimentary minibar, coffee, and a safe in the twin room. The hotel was ideally located really close to the main transportation hub, tourist information, and good restaurants and the lake and circus and train station.

    The hotel is right on a pedestrian street. Most interesting places of the old town were within walking distance. Many restaurants and cafes... The hotel has its own parking lot. The place should be booked in advance! It's not far, but I think it will be hard to get through this quest on your own. If you arrive before 20:00, a special person will bring you to the parking lot, help you park the car, and then take out of the labyrinth of stairs and doors. Psychologically, you need to adjust yourself to the entrance sign on a pedestrian street to unload your luggage. From the embankment no races, do not believe the navigators (I had three!!!). Breakfast with a wide range of dishes, you can stock up on calories until the evening. ;). Everything that was supposed to work in the room was working. Internet - fast, water - hot, TV channels - a lot.

    Room was too warm. Needed a portable 50cm electric fan in the room. Opening the windows only let in the noise from the restaurant/nightclub street below.

    The hotel has a very convenient location - city center, 10 minutes on foot to the central station. The room is small, all new, or in very good condition. Feeded well, one day there was an amazing omelette, the other worse, but also delicious. There's not much to eat, but they won't get bored in 2-3 days. Very pleased with the wi-fi router, which can be taken on bail for the entire period of stay completely free. Apples are served at the reception, and in the morning you can make coffee and go for a walk with him.

    The room overlooking a busy pedestrian street is a little loud. Still could use a kettle.
