The location was excellent, overlooking the main square. The room had a modern look. Breakfast included a good selection of standard European items like bacon and eggs. I found the bed comfortable (i slept like a log!).
The entrance to the hotel is through the restaurant, a little unusual.

Excellent stay with a superb location
central locationsquare viewshelpful staffclean room
I appreciated the central location. It provided easy access to the main tourist attractions. My room offered great views overlooking the Markt square, which i especially liked (it was postcard perfect!). The staff were helpful and allowed us to store our bikes inside due to evening quietness. The room was clean. It also felt newly refurbished.
The stairs were narrow and steep. This made carrying luggage difficult.

The hotel functions as a restaurant-cafe on the ground floor, with a terrace. I saw many people enjoying meals at the neighboring establishments. They offer a variety of dining options right on the Markt.
