Schönes Hotel, EZ mit 1,20 Bett, sauber , hab mich sehr wohl gefühlt. Würde sagen 4.5/5 Matratze war zwar fest und daher denke noch recht neu - aber nicht so komfortabel wie erhofft. Trotzdem Absolute Empfehlung

Vom Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis her ist es ein gutes Hotel. Leider sind die Zimmer jedoch in die Jahre gekommen, und das Mobiliar wirkt stark veraltet.
