Nur Nachtlebentauglich

Wer am Wochenende hier schlafen möchte, ist am falschen Ort. Die Bässe des Nachtlebens gleich nebenan wummern bis weit nach 3 Uhr morgens. Das Zimmer ist nicht klimatisiert und so war es extrem heiss trotz geöffnetem Fenster.

It's easy walking distance from train station, university and city center. Reception was friendly and efficient. My single room on the top floor had no AC just a fan, which is OK except that I suggest they install screens because bugs come in through the window in the summer. But overall, I was very happy with the place!
