The hotel has a central location, making it easy to explore the city with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. While my room was comfortable, it was actually located in a separate building which was a bit inconvenient. The service I received was mixed, as some staff members were polite, while others were quite unfriendly. Overall, it provided good value for money but there were definitely areas for improvement.

I stayed in an annex room which was across a shopping precinct, not ideal since I expected it to be adjacent to the main hotel building. However, the room itself was comfortable overall.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was absolutely fantastic, right in the heart of old town Friedrichshafen, making it really convenient to explore. The rooms, however, were a bit dated and not ideal, with the bathrooms needing some serious attention. The staff was efficient, but the lack of friendliness made the service feel a bit off. Overall, it’s a decent place if you prioritize location, but don’t expect luxury or a warm welcome.

The room I stayed in was clean, though it felt a bit old and the bathroom was unacceptable. It was also a bit quieter since my room was across the street from the main building.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, enjoying its great location near the shops and Bodensee. The rooms were clean and cozy, but the lack of air conditioning was a bit tough during the summer heat. The friendly staff made everything a lot better, although the breakfast did have some room for improvement. Overall, it's a decent value for money, but a couple of small tweaks could elevate the experience.
