8.8Verified guest“The roof terrace has lovely views over the city, though the bar was closed in winter. There's a construction site next door — noise early morning and at noon, worth knowing before booking. Staff were very friendly. On arrival, German TV channels weren't working due to a server issue, fixed the same day.”
