Older Hotel with character
Location was good, about a half mile walk to the Cathedral. Rooms are simple, but comfortable. No elevator so you will have to walk up 1-4 flights of stairs. Breakfast was included with a selection of breads, cheese and cold meats. Free parking was a public lot half a mile away and was only free during the night. Staff during the day was friendly and helpful. No staff onsite after dark, but you are given a key to a side entrance. Street side can be a little noisy at night.

Hotel is generaly good but the heater is not sufficient enough to heat the room and the bathroom. Hotel by the way has no lift, good for excercise. Location is very good and staff are friendly.

Well priced centrally located hotel
Nice hotel with friendly helpful staff. Only downside, if it is a downside is front door is closed at 7PM and there are no staff there until next morning. You are given a key to a side door but not sure what would happen if there was an emergency.

Very close to city - convenient!
They do not have double beds, so don't expect it! But the single beds were clean and tidy. Breakfast was excellent. There is NO FREE PARKING - but it is available at only 6 Euro for 24 hours, which is good.

Eine tolle Unterkunft, alles sehr gut zu Fuß zu erreichen, saubere Zimmer, Ventilator im Zimmer, perfekt gerade bei dem heißen Wetter. Super schneller und einfacher Check-In und Check-Out. Wir hatten nur eine Maus im Zimmer, wir hatten Zimmer Nr. 2. Vielleicht mal gucken wie man die da raus bekommt, weil die scheint da schon etwas länger zu sein. Die hat sich unter dem Schrank versteckt und damit es da keine Vermehrung gibt, sollte etwas unternommen werden. Ansonsten war da eine super Unterkunft an der es nichts auszusetzen gibt. Sehr zufrieden!

Trotz der Riesenlange Eingangstreppe, war ich mit dem eigenen kleinen Bad, dem Balkon und auch noch mit Blick auf den Dom sehr begeistert. Sehr sauber und bei Bedarf wird täglich Bettwäsche und Handtücher ausgewechselt. Leider kein TV vorhanden, aber durch WLAN kein Problem. Sehr gerne wieder! P.S. Toppen würde es noch mit einem kleinen Kühlschrank. 😉
