Good value for money
Pros:

Friendly staff and a nice comfortable room and stay.

Cons:

The WiFi is awful and mostly non-existent at the back of the hotel. Also, the train tracks go right past the back rooms and may wake you at night.

Pros:

Location. Cleanliness, staff

Cons:

Could use another chair in the room. Two guests but only 1 chair. Having the toilet in the shower stall was a little awkward. Not to mention the wet floor atfer showers.

Pros:

Check in und Check out waren unkompliziert

Cons:

Unser Zimmer war direkt an den Bahngleisen. Die Züge sind auch nachts gefahren. Daher hatten wir keinen erholsamen Schlaf. Die Fotos vom Hotelzimmer sahen schicker aus und entsprachen bedingt der Realität
