Hotelkonkurrenz
Nuremberg
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (5 reviews)
"The rooms are very clean and the mattresses are comfortable. Road noise is not an issue. Loud conversations from the reception are problematic as the hall door is almost always wedged open. The availability of paper cups and beverage supplies is very intermittent. One of the toilets had a broken seat. Please remember to bring a pair of slippers as the floors in the shower may be quite wet. We did not meet any staff. "
