"Eigentlich war alles OK, jedoch hat eines der beiden Fenster nicht ganz geschlossen, so dass etwas Lärm in der Nacht herein dringen konnte. Beim Frühstück störte es sehr, dass dort andere Gäste telefonierten! Hier hat die Hotelleitung versagt, da diese die Gäste, welche in Ruhe frühstücken möchten, nicht vor den rücksichtslosen Telefonierern schützt. Telefonieren während des Frühstücks sollte dringend unterbunden werden!!!"
