a well-located and functional stay

helpful staffluggage facilityclean roomconvenient location
the reception staff provided useful information about the christmas markets without prompting. they have a luggage facility which i used on my last day. the room maintained cleanliness, and the bed offered a restful experience. its location is convenient for accessing the christmas markets by foot.
i found the air conditioning unit to be ineffective, even in february the room felt too warm. this necessitated keeping the window open, which impacted the quietness of the stay.

awesome stay!

excellent locationclean roompractical wardrobe
I loved the super good location, like fifteen minutes walk to the dom, smack in the center and altstadt sud, it was so easy. the room was clean, so comfortable. the bathroom, tiny but cute, totally enough, i think. the open wardrobe was a great idea in that small space. I could check in super early at 12.00.
the breakfast area could have more seating.
