Comfortable stay near Alster Lake

quiet road excellent position good bar

The location was great, close to the train station and Alster Lake. I found many good bars and restaurants within a short walk. The area was quiet. There were lockers available for my bags after check-out.

The elevator was a little sporadic. It wasn't always readily available.
