The hotel is located right beside Freiburg Town Hall and is in a prime spot for exploring the pedestrian zone, making it super convenient for sightseeing. However, the rooms are quite cramped, with limited access and no air conditioning, which made my stay a bit uncomfortable. The service was excellent, with friendly and professional staff who were very helpful, and the breakfast was a pleasant surprise with a wide variety of high-quality options.
