  The location was ok but this is overpriced for room value unless it is a view of the river

  Liked: Bathroom size and shower size very nice.

  Disliked: The junior suite with city view was not worth over 500. The view of some rooftops of nearby buildings. The bed was too low to floor. Breakfast didn't include hot food selection.

  Staff welcome and friendliness. Large room. Central

  Liked: Staff were friendly and helpful throughout. Our flight was delayed and they were sympathetic. The hotel is old and protected. The room was large and did not have fancy equipment but was nice with a view of the Rhine. As others have commented while breakfast was ok it was expensive for the limited choice and especially as there was much competition nearby. Would recommend if you like friendly stuff and atmosphere, not if you want all the gadgets on the room

  Disliked: Nothing
