historic charm near city center

large windowsurrounding architecturetrain stationfresh pastries
the receptionists always addressed my needs quickly. the room included a large window with views of the surrounding architecture. the hotel's proximity to the train station helped a lot. every morning, the breakfast area offered fresh pastries and fruit.
street noise was noticeable sometimes, especially during peak hours, though it did not bother me too much.
