great location and friendly staff
peaceful street great location fresh options varied breakfast
The hotel has a convenient location, situated on a peaceful street within a charming area! but it is still close enough for walking to main attractions. Amenities exceeded my expectations for the price. I enjoyed the provided breakfastwith fresh and varied options.
the room felt a bit small for two people with luggage, and this affected my overall comfort a tiny bit.

An okay experience
central location helpful staff uncomfortable bed small room
The location was pretty central (i liked that it was tucked away). The hotel staff were helpful too. Our room suited us well. It was quite compact.
The bed was unfortunately very uncomfortable. The room was entirely too small for two people with luggage (we had quite a lot, actually). The toilets were also very shallow.
