Our first night had an excellent room but it was on the main street side and I could not sleep because of the noise outside. Hotel changed our room and we were very satisfied.

The room was small but that was not a surprise. We loved the location because it was so close to the Christmas market and old town. The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. We would stay here again.
