Pleasant

Pleasant suburban location with restaurants and banks etc close by. The rooms are clean and modern but have no air conditioning and consequently very hot (in summer). Drinking water, tea, coffee etc is provided free in a shared communal facility on each floor. The church (very nearby) chimes every half hour even during the night which for some disturbs sleep.

Sehr lautes Zimmer über der Schlachterei

Das Zimmer (Nr. 14) lag direkt über der Schlachterei, wo um 5:30 Uhr morgends die Maschinen laufen und ab 6 Uhr die LKW an der Laderampe beladen werden. Damit ist die Nachtruhe sehr verkürzt. Ich übernachte oft im Hotel Ochsen, aber die Zimmer 12-16 sind sehr laut und nicht zu empfehlen.
