good location, next to supermarket & bahnhof, breakfast selection was very good but starts very late at 730am. offers good gesture by providing water (apparently with special mineral-rocks soaked in) - quite bizarre but interesting

internet access was not working during our stay. This hotel was selected as we thought there was access.
