Hotel Scheuble

Hotel Scheuble

10/10 Excellent
"Perfect location. Easy walk to Old Town. Staff extremely nice. Breakfast pretty basic for the price. Would go out to a cafe for better hot drinks and eats. Room was clean and had plenty of plug ins to charge our electronics. Great hairdryer! Bathroom doors were a little weird - frosted sliding glass but covered the main parts for privacy. They did have a bar but closed early and reception staff was bartender. Would recommend going to a pub if you like late night libations. Would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay again. "
