Nice hotel in a good location. Rooms were reasonably quiet, clean and comfortable. Service and breakfast were adequate. Location is about a twenty minute walk to the aldstadt/touristy section of the city, but it's nearby plenty of services and restaurants. They have on-site parking (having a small car helps.)

Location is excelent but It is not a 4 star hotel. It is a 2,5 or 3 star at most. Rooms and reception desk are basic, I got a smaller a room than the one I paid, and when I asked to the Manager he was facing back in the office, and didn’t even turn back to reply, he said we must be thankful because we got a good room, and we could submit any complaints through Expedia….

The location is excellent — right in the heart of everything, which was definitely the highlight of my stay. I booked a comfort room for two nights. While I understand that city rooms can be small, the overall condition of the room was quite disappointing. It felt very worn down and in need of renovation. The bed and pillows were comfortable, and the bedding was clean, which was important to me since I spent most of my time outside the hotel. However, the rest of the room did not meet expectations. The bathroom was clearly outdated, and the shower fixture was loose and kept falling. The furniture was very old, and the wardrobe was dusty and not properly cleaned — I didn’t feel comfortable hanging my clothes there. Even the trash bin had not been emptied before my arrival, which suggests that the cleaning standards are lacking. Another downside for me was the carpet, which I generally prefer to avoid due to hygiene and allergies. Overall, the location is great, but the hotel itself does not live up to a 4-star standard. In my opinion, it is closer to a 2-star experience. I might consider staying again for the location, but only if the room quality is improved or a different room category is chosen.

Great location, but be cautious!

Rated 4 star, no Way its a 4 star luxury hotel. Location is 4 star, but hotel is outdated, more likely 2 star. Rooms are smelly, super hot with no aircondition, breakfast is boring and low end, Fresh orange juice is a plus though. Wifi is also like non existed, which is not ideal for business.
