Great - we'll be back!Very nice and friendly employees. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back.The room was nice and big and clean. There was a walk-in shower, which was very pleasant. The room was clean and there was enough storage space for luggage (we had already done so elsewhere).We got to the city center in 4 minutes by bus line 2.The rooms are not new in design, but are in good condition and very well maintained. There was carpet in the room, which could be a problem for allergy sufferers.Our room had a minibar, air conditioning and flat screen. We also had a nice balcony. The cleaner was very polite and nice in the morning.In the morning it was very crowded at breakfast, but we managed to get a seat and were able to enjoy the varied breakfast. The gentleman at check-out was also very nice and gave us tips about the city.We were absolutely impressed by the staff, room size and cleanliness and it won't be our last visit.

Booked through Booking and got a room that had its best days behind it and which I found to be shabby.Room number 116.No air conditioning - ok, the world isn't ending at the moment.Smelled a bit musty - it's due to the pretty old carpet - ok, so ventilate it wellIt would have been nice to tilt a window before the guest arrives.In the bathroom the toilet roll holder was completely loose - since I didn't have an Inbuchs to hand, I tightened the small screw to fix it as best I could.When showering, the sealing lip on the left side of the shower door is missing - the doors are at different heights - so unfortunately the bathroom flooded when showering.In the room under the desk or under the refrigerator, the carpet needs a dusting - the same applies to the area behind the door.Maybe this needs to be renovated...Located on a very busy main road into the city center and therefore quite loud.The hotel is by no means bad, fulfilledHowever, the reasons mentioned do not reflect my claim to accommodation.It's a 20 minute walk into town, so not an issue.The breakfast was ok - everything was pretty average, but OK.The scrambled eggs were very tasty.The staff friendly and helpful.Reaction to your answer:I'm reducing my rating to the minimum because you're telling untruths (and that annoys me immensely).It would have been professional if you had responded professionally and dealt with the criticism objectively.1. I booked a hotel room on Booking, that's right. As an end user, how am I supposed to know that this is your "lower category"?Unfortunately, the phrase “You are currently booking our worst room” is not displayed / only “the last room” (probably in the truest sense of the word.2. You talk about goodwill and price reductionsNow that shoots the bird. I didn't voice my complaints at all and wrote my review from home the following day.By the way, this can be proven (payment receipt on October 11th and review entry one day later! You are probably confusing me with another guest who apparently didn't feel quite as comfortable either.There was therefore NO conversation with any colleague or anything like that.3. You say that I told you in advance about my special wishes.That is simply a lie. There was NO contact in advance (booking via Booking).If in doubt, you could certainly prove that I contacted you before your arrival AND that I made additional requests.I would really like to see the booking news that should prove this (I didn't have any).For the sake of peace, I assume here that you are simply confusing me with another guest who apparently had the same problems?!?!?4. To shorten the whole thing:Please read my review carefully, I didn't describe the walk as a problem, but purely as a fact for future guests.I am deeply disappointed that you spread untruths and seem unable to deal with only constructive criticism in any way.I also didn't write that it was dirty, but that it could be renovated again. In my world this is a world away from your words.Mentioning the noise of the street is also intended to help future guests assess it as a whole - nothing more, nothing less.Once again I ask you to read my review CORRECTLY and not to assume or interpret anything. And please stick to the truth.If you confuse me with another guest, I will gladly accept your apology.But unfortunately I can't let untruths stand...

Service in the restaurant was great, the food was very good. The ambience in the restaurant is more typical of a hotel restaurant, but overall absolutely recommended.

Shabby but clean.Lots of little things that don't fit: Broken cup in the room, skirting board between bathroom and room missing, toilet brush stuck firmly in container, ashtray on the balcony not clean, sockets dirty, etc.Breakfast: very manageable, little choice, not even cooked ham available. Instead salmon substitute. Scrambled eggs delicious. Generally very small selection of rolls too. Looked like they were trying to save money. The garage and parking spaces are very limited and narrow. Extremely little in relation to the number of rooms.All in all okay, but the little things add up.

We stayed at this hotel at the weekend. Unfortunately we didn't feel very comfortable.- First of all we were given a room that was warm like a sauna at 30 degrees. We then looked for the air conditioning, but there is no air conditioning in the standard room (we paid 130 euros). At least we got a cooler room. That was positive.- The room didn't seem very clean, dusty and musty (from the drain to the bed linen), the carpet etc.- There were two empty water bottles in the minibar, presumably from the previous guests, which shows that the minibar was not checked - similar to the accessories set in the bathroom, which was incomplete.- We asked the day before what time we had to leave the room the next day and were told: 12 p.m. The next morning the phone rang at 11am and a not very friendly gentleman told us to leave the room. We explained that we had been told 12 o'clock and had prepared for it. We were therefore allowed to check out at 12 p.m. The gentleman sat at the front desk when checking out and was extremely rude, even though we were friendly the entire time. A friendly employee to say goodbye might have balanced out the overall impression rather than strengthening it.

The Hotel 'Tandreas' has given me numerous short stays over the past few months, which have always been pleasant. The extremely courteous and friendly staff and the well-kept rooms, which are also very functional and tastefully furnished, contributed to this. The breakfast is ok. Thank you again!
