My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were nice and clean, though the carpet seemed a bit shabby. The antique decor gave a dated feel, but it was a bit cluttered. The lack of a fridge was a downside for me in terms of space, considering the room was smaller than expected but still comfortable. The price was fair, but I wish it included a fridge for added convenience.

The hotel is located within walking distance of popular attractions and offers a cozy, antique ambiance. The rooms, while varying in amenities, are on the smaller side and some renovation is needed. The service is friendly and knowledgeable, adding character to the visit. The dining options are fresh and varied, with a highlight on German meats and baked goods.

It felt like staying in a royal palace - the old building ambiance with squeaky floorboards and high ceilings made it cozy and quiet, equipped with high-quality materials. A touch of history with all the comforts you need. The only downside is that it's not your typical modern hotel.
