But the shampoo is weak and does not generate much foam. 2) A small plaza is situated just across the street with a pedestrian bridge connecting the two. There are various retail stores, pharmacies, restaurants, bakeries, and banks in the small plaza. 3) The restaurant in the first floor is decent but the menu is not particularly German. On Wednesdays, they offer a buffet-style dinner. During our stay, the buffet consisted of a salad bar, hot entree bar, hot pasta bar, and mini dessert table. 5) Breakfast is buffet style and complimentary.

There is not much of a view but the rooms are spacious, clean, and newly renovated. Cons: 1) They do not provide body lotion and hair conditioner. But they can be easily found at a nearby, discounted supermarket, Lidl. 2) The mini fridge is not complimentary but it is replenished daily and comes with a wide variety. My mini fridge came with soft drinks, wine, still water, juice, chocolate, etc. In addition to the mini fridge, there are also other snacks such as pretzels, potato chips, and nuts. 3) The hotel has a mini fitness room that includes a treadmill, elliptical, floor mats, and random weights. It is not a wide selection but we were in town during the end of winter, so it helped to keep me active. 4) The rooms have a thermostat but it was no effective. I attempted to lower the room temperature and each time, the room got hotter instead. 5) Despite the new renovations making the room sleek and modern, some other items are in dire need of an upgrade. A few examples: The towels are incredibly thin and rough. The pillow and blanket sizes are not proportional to the queen size bed. The pillow was a huge fluffy square that immediately fell flat when laid upon. I had to request for a second pillow, stack the pillows, and roll the two up to make it more comfortable. The blanket has a lot of air in and the size is more for a twin size bed.
