I wish they varied their selection of beers in the cooler as I find Jever too bitter. Bitburger or Licher preferred.

"The room was spacious and clean, with very comfortable beds. Breakfast was lovely, with plenty of choice. The building has a lovely traditional, older feel, which works really well in the restaurant, reception and hallways. I do feel the rooms, particularly the bathroom, could benefit from a little update while still keeping the character of the hotel. We were really looking forward to the city view, as this was included in the room description when we booked. Unfortunately, our room was on the other side of the building, so we didn’t get the view we were expecting."
