Small cousy hotel, great staff, very clean and super convenient if you are going to a convention. Breakfast was decent and everything was fresh, the staff were super nice.
Great service and nice breakfast but rooms very basic and a bit dated for the price paid. Old lift which didn't arrive on top floor when leaving to check out so had to lug suitcase down flights of stairs when in a hurry :(
Ich hatte ein sehr ruhiges gepflegtes Zimmer im Nebengebäude.
So ungewöhnlich ruhig, direkt neben einer stark befahrenen Straße... Alles ordentlich, Möglichkeit selbst spät einzuchecken.
Ausgiebiges Frühstücksbuffet
Sehr nettes Personal

Nettes, sauberes Hotel in der Nähe von Messe und Uniklinik.
Reichhaltiges Frühstück.
Sehr angenehmes Kongresshotel.
Personal sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Vielen Dank!
Das Hotel ist sicher schon etwas älter und nicht barrierefrei aber gepflegt und sehr sauber. Frühstück frisch und lecker.
