Overall: Thank you for rescuing/expanding this article. I was just over there the other day. Everything looks good, but please consider making some small tweaks: The sentences about guests at the end of the construction section could probably be moved to the notable guests section. The MNopedia reference has a title, but no publisher, author or date. The sentence beginning "The rooms functioned as a hotel room for the salesman with display area..." could be reworded for clarity. Consistent use of either 'ratskeller' or 'rathskeller' in both the hook and the article would also be nice. gobonobo + c 20:59, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
