The hotel is conveniently located close to the main station with helpful staff. The rooms, although simple, are spacious and equipped with all necessary amenities. A slight downside is that the hotel is situated above a nightclub, which may impact light sleepers. Overall, it offers good value for money.

The hotel had larger rooms than other hotels in this category, but we found them to be very small for the price we paid. The noise from the trams and church bells was also a bit overwhelming. The service was efficient, with quick check-in, but there were some disturbances like hoovering leaves where there were none. The location is convenient, close to the main train station and within walking distance to tram stops and grocery stores. The dining experience was poor, except for the homemade muffins. The facilities were decent, but there were some areas that needed improvement.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were spacious and had all the amenities we needed; however, the noise from trams and church bells could be a bit bothersome. The location on Immatstrasse was convenient for exploring the city. The service was satisfactory, with the staff being helpful and accommodating, although there was a slight issue with the initial room assignment. The proximity to the main train station was a plus, making it easy to get around. The dining options were limited, but the complimentary beef dishes were a nice touch. The facilities were adequate, offering dry cleaning and laundry services.

The hotel's location is perfect for easy access to the tram and offers a not-so-touristy night scene. While the rooms are basic and could use an update, they provide all necessary amenities. The service was somewhat lacking in friendliness but did offer free accommodation for dogs. Dining options were limited, and the hotel partners with a local restaurant across the street.

The hotel has a great location, near downtown and popular tourist attractions. The rooms are spacious and have all amenities needed, although being facing the main road and tram track could be noisy at night. The service, while generally good and cooperative, had some instances of rudeness. The dining options were off the property but available nearby. The hotel's location is definitely its strongest point, but service could use some improvement.
