Even if I am a light sleeper and the rooms are not soundproof, but thanks to the wonderful staff it more than makes up for it ;-) I had such a lovely exchange with some of them - especially at the front desk :-) Whatever I needed, they always helped me or tried to find solutions. Thank you so much! Would highly recommend this place, also because it`s located in a side street.
