"Klein, fein, ruhig, zentrumsnah"

10.0

Das Zimmer mit Gartenblick war extrem ruhig, kein störender Straßenlärm , das Zimmer war sehr sauber und wurde jeden Tag wieder hergerichtet. Das Bad ist zwar sehr schmal gewesen aber für die paar Tage völlig in Ordnung und genauso sauber und renoviert Die Mitarbeiter waren alle sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich! 😀 Supermärkte sind auch nicht weit weg, einer sogar gleich um die Ecke.

Ein kleiner Kasten wäre wünschenswert

Chambre très propre, équipements à disposition très bien !! Nombreuses serviettes, sèche cheveux et bouilloire sur place. Accueil irréprochable et conseils de qualité !!

Salle de bain petite et mauvaise insonorisation avec portes qui claquent fort.

"Ok, men inte mycket mer"

5.0

Mycket fräscht och nyrenoverat badrum även om det inte fanns några krokar att hänga handdukar på så de hamnade på duschhandtaget och elementet i rummet. Sängen var mycket skön.

Rummets storlek, brist på förvaringsutrymme, krokar till ytterkläder saknades, krokar till handdukar saknades,

"Waren zufrieden 👍"

9.0

Zimmer war sauber und komfortabel.

😂 die Türen haben stark geknartzt, gequitscht. Da unsere Dusche außerhalb war, ist es wohl für Zimmernachbarn nicht angenehm durch quietschende Türen geweckt zu werden, beim nächtlichen Toilettengang. Ein bisschen Öl und das Problem ist behoben 😎

The victorian style of the building. It was also very clean.

The bathroom was private but outside of the room, which I couldn't imagine!!! No possibility to change room.

Bardzo dobra lokalizacja, ładne miejsce, 15 min spaceru do zamku, wygodne łóżko, miły personel, dobre wyposażenie pokoju.

Brudna pościel od środka :( niezidentyfikowane włosy na prześcieradle i poszewkach poduszek. Łazienka na korytarzu a nie przy pokoju, brak pełnej swobody i prywatności.
