The room was way too small for a family of 4. Cramped like sardines in a tin can. The elevator stopped working on our check-out day and my family and I had to carry our suitcases down 4 flights of steps.

We had an excellent stay for my family of 4. Great location in Old Town right by the river and in close proximity to restaurants. The mattresses for the beds set up for my children were a little too firm but that was the only improvement - we were happy that they had their own beds here as most hotels we are staying at only have a sofa bed from them.

We had a wonderful 24 hours at the Altstadt Hotel. It is centrally located and we were able to walk everywhere. The bar/cafe was a lovely place to sit outside for tea and a beer before we left for the train to the airport. We found the small elevator a tight fit for ourselves and luggage. That was the only hint of inconvenience.
