"The hotel is on the place to be in Heidelberg near the old bridge and his river the Neckar."

"Our room was on the first floor overlooking the busy Steingasse so there was no view to speak of, but it was a large clean room with comfortable bed and although the decor was dated it kind of fitted in with the ambience of this old building and ancient Heidelberg itself."
