This is the cutest hotel I have been to in a while in Europe. It was very clean and wonderfully decorated. The beds were cosy, and the hotel was very quiet. The only thing I could hear were the pigeons cooing out of my window. So peaceful! The hotel is conveniently located in the altstadt where the Dom is as well as everything else- all in walking distance.
The bathroom, however, wasn't very private as it is only a sliding frosted glass door. Your significant other can pretty much hear all the noise you will be making in the WC, and see you moving around. Awkward if you care about that.
The staff was very friendly and helpful, but I got the feeling that they were keeping track of residents for some reason as every time I walked in or out they asked me for my room number. The other weird instance was that my BF and I went back to the room to do a little you know what, and we had the "bitte nicht storen" sign on the door all day, and suddenly the housekeeping lady was knocking and asking if we were there and if we wanted service. I expect a lot more privacy than that. Maybe she was lonely, I don't know.
I also wished they were a little more bicycle touring friendly, as I got the cold shoulder from the one receptionist as I walked in from my 70 mile ride. She also insisted that I keep my expensive bicycle in the basement, which I really did not feel comfortable with as my bike is my only means of transportation and it is my life, not to mention that all of my belongings were mounted to the frame, and to remove them all and put them back on again is a huge inconvenience.
And just as a tip, you can get breakfast there for extra, but if you have jet-lag and need coffee at 7 AM, since there is no coffee in the room, you can head over to Cafe Fabrizi since they will be the only ones open besides McDonald's.
I would stay here again if I weren't touring by bicycle. It's really a nice, cosy retreat from the hustle-bustle of the town. Also, make sure you don't need assistance in the middle of the night because there is no staff available after 22:00.
