    I think the room could use more lights. It was a little dark.

    The reception desk and all the staff were friendly and so helpful. The room was easy to get in and out of without fuss. It was very clean and the property provided amenities in the room. Very close to metro.

    The aircon was noisy during the first two days. But later the hotel owner fixed it.

    The very friendly host and the cleaness of the room.

    The hotel was cute and homely, it’s definitely a different experience from staying at big hotel chains! Had good conversations with the owner who runs the entire place and the room was so clean! Every detail from welcome gummy bears on the pillow to the way the towels were folded was beautiful! 10/10 recommend! And will definitely be back. Great location, many nice restaurants around and what a sweet, warm a kind stay. Thank you

    This is a family run business, and the warm and personal touches reflects this. Lovely first impression being checked. Given a map and shown where to walk to see all the main highlights of the old town. Room on the larger size with good bathroom. Lovely breakfast (reasonably priced) with good range of breads meats and cheeses, along with fresh fruit. Close to metro.

    The hotel was in walking distance of the main train station and, more importantly, located in the old town. The proprietor was wonderful and gave us suggestions for restaurants and sights to see. The room was updated and spotless. There is no AC, but we were still comfortable in the evening even though it was August. We had a pleasant two-night stay in this hotel and an enjoyable visit to Nuremburg.

    I can not think of anything.

    Hotel full of things to discover, each piece comes with a story. I loved the shower, spacious, all temperatures and also strong water pressure available. Comfy beds, big room and window blinds for keeping noise and sunlight out. Good breakfast with lots of choices. Super friendly people running the place.

    Just lovely overall, with a warm atmosphere.. You can tell that the owner and her son are really happy to run the hotel. The customer service is superb. The hotel is clean and all the attractions within the old town are easy to walk to. The neighborhood feels safe. There's a fire station next door, but windows closed I didn't wake up at all during the night. Prepare to climb some stairs, wasn't a problem to me.

    I really enjoyed my three night stay at this lovely hotel. The location is great - only 15 mins walk from the main railway station and easy walking distance to all the sites in the old town. Tim and his mother (whose name I unfortunately didn't get) were very friendly and Tim, in particular, was very helpful when I arrived in providing me with recommendations of what to see as well as a couple of very good restaurant suggestions. My room was very comfortable, spacious and nicely furnished, with lots of nice touches - lovely products in the bathroom, a large bottle of complimentary sparkling water, tea/coffee making facilities etc. I would definitely stay here again if I am ever back in Nurnberg.

    It was very homely and the woman who runs it was so friendly and accommodating. She offered great recommendations of viewpoints in town, how to access the metro train and get to the Messe easily, as well as making a lovely breakfast. The room was very nice, clean, and comfortable and even had a balcony! I would stay here again. Thanks!

    Bringing the suitcases to and from the second floor a little cumbersome. Luckily when we arrived the son of the ownwer helped us to carry the suitcases up!

    Location inside the old walls was very good. Breakfast very good and the owner and son were very helpful in assisting in getting some reservations for some other restaurants.

    No lift lift, so 4th floor took some time to ascend, but inteding guests are advised on booking of "no liifts".

    Superb location, just 3 mins walk from the U-bahn and located in the city centre. Very competively priced and room was great value for money with additional features such as mini-fridge and kettle.
