The breakfast offered many choices and good quality food. All staff were very friendly. They were professional and nothing was too much trouble. The room was modern and clean.
The room was nice, however, the view could be better. The location is not where the action is. I would prefer to be closer to the Danube River. I'll add more at the end of our stay.
