Just the price included

Pros: It was inexpensive
Cons: The breakfast good be nicer.
Location: behind the train station, handy but loud.
Not a great hotel but certainly one of the more cheaper ones there. So if you a cheap place, give it try, but it is a bit disappointing... with breakfast included, you are about the price of a better hotel.

Sehr nahe am Zentrum. Gut gelegen, da Bahn direkt neben Hotel. Aber sehr laut, da Strasse stark befahren und es keine Klimaanlage hat

Die Unterkunft ist für ein 2 Stern Hotel super. Freundliches Personal....wie selten. Lage direkt neben dem Bahnhof ist super. Das Frühstück war Bescheiden, da ich vor Ort auf Montage war genügte dies für uns und das wichtigste der Kaffee ist sehr gut....
