Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Haus Pegasus, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 2 or 3 facing the rear (south-west side) away from Bremer Straße. These upper floors reduce street noise and offer more privacy above the lift lobby.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first floor directly above the entrance or facing Bremer Straße — street traffic noise from this main road can be intrusive, especially at peak hours. Also skip any room next to the lift shaft on any floor.
Best views
Rooms facing the rear (south-west) overlook the residential area and green courtyard. Front-facing rooms have a view of Bremer Straße and the car park — less appealing and noisier.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 are the quietest here — higher than ground-level bustle and further from any service entrance noise. The lift serves all floors, so fourth floor is also fine but lacks view advantage.
🔊 Noise notes
Bremer Straße carries local traffic throughout the day, including delivery trucks to nearby shops. Noise peaks in the early morning (6–8am) and late afternoon (4–6pm). The lift produces a low hum that can be heard in adjacent rooms.
