“Hofbrau Riverfront Hotel presents a straightforward option for those prioritizing budget over polish; it's a roof and a bed, reliably functional if not luxurious. The strong water pressure stands out, a simple but welcome comfort. For travelers seeking fuss-free lodging without high expectations, this spot might suffice, but nearby alternatives warrant exploration.”
