Booked through Octopustravel.com. The hotel was listed as a 3-star, but doesn't quite come off this way.

Booked this through easyhotel[--] where you have to pay ahead of time but had no problems there. Location is on the north side, opposite the old town, though its a few minute ride by tram or 15 minute walk to the main bridge for instance. It's a few blocks from German train station. Room was small, but perfectly fine for... more
