Einer der wunderbarsten Orte zum freien Denken, zum Arbeiten oder um einfach nur zu sein. Die Einzigartigkeit und die Großzügigkeit dieses Gebäudes entschädigt jede Abgestaubtheit, jeden kaputten Wasserhahn, jeden quietschenden Arbeitsstuhl - ja, diese Dinge machen diesen Ort erst zu dem, was er ist. Hier ist auf wunderbarste Weise die Zeit stehen geblieben und das hat Charme. Bitte verändern Sie diesen Charme nicht allzu sehr, wenn das Gebäude demnächst renoviert werden soll. Danke für diesen Ort!

A great place to work and study! The environment is calm, spacious, and perfect for staying focused. The cafe is also really nice, with good options for coffee and snacks, making long study sessions much easier. The only thing that could be improved is the cleanliness of the washrooms.
