Great place if you like everything very old- notice there is old and sophisticated but this place was old and outdated. The hallways in my floor smelled like pee. Good people just a place I really don’t want to comeback again.

Splendido e storico

Bellissimo e pulitissimo, con secoli di storia alle spalle ma in eccellenti condizioni. Nulla da eccepire, salvo forse la colazione un po’ troppo cara ma ormai in Germania è così.

Zimmer Einrichtung in die Jahre gekommen

Gute Lage nah zum Zentrum, Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Hotel hat eine fast 500 jährige Geschichte und historisches Flair. Zimmer müssten trotzdem mal ener Renovierung unterzogen werden. Interieur und Badeinrichtung schon ziemlich abgenutzt. Man muss die kompletten Übernachtungskosten direkt im Voraus beim Check in bezahlen.Parkgebühr beträgt 10 Euro pro Tag. Im Hotelrestaurant bekommt man gutes traditionelles Essen. Allerdings war es jetzt in der Vorweihnachtszeit immer sehr voll und das Servicepersonal völlig unterbesetzt.Lange Wartezeiten mussten in Kauf genommen werden.

Wir waren 2 Nächte im Hotel. Leider war die Empfangsdame nicht immer freundlich aufgestellt und schaute lieber in den PC oder auf den Boden als Guten Tag zu sagen. Die Badewanne war leider schmutzig und für uns unbenutzbar gewesen. Eine Steckdose beim Eingangstüre war total kaputt wo wir für ein Hotel mit diesen Sternen ersetzt werden sollte. Das Bett war aber sehr bequem.

Positives: Clean room, good breakfast, nice location downtown. I like the black bear in the lobby. Negatives: The wifi was so weak that it would not stay connected to either my phone or my computer. When I said something to the desk clerk, she offered a lame excuse - she said that some laptops just don't connect very well, but phones do connect well. That was wrong, neither device would connect. When I checked out, I mentioned it to a different clerk, who apologized. The water in the shower kept cycling between too cold and too hot.
