Great location! Walking distance to every spot we could imagine. Lots of restaurants and shops around the hotel + turist attractions. They also had a "doggy" roof top where people bring their dogs, have a beer or cocktail and enjoy. We were very pleased!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Breakfast is decent, well attended. Very conviently located,
room was small -barebones. 10-15 steps up with luggage to reach the reception. Owner has a tight grip on running this place, efficient.
Just okay. Very nice and convenient location. First staff member was very friendly and gave recommendations, second was rather cold. Overall pricey for the room, yet much cheaper than most in the area.
Amazing service, great location and walking distance to old town.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was clean , staff very nice and friendly. But the shower wasn’t pleasant at all. It was getting either so hot or so cold. We couldn’t enjoy the shower to get relaxed , a minute got very hot to the boiling point and a minute after got very cold.
This hotel is in the middle of lots of shopping and dining. It's a good, simple older hotel with a great staff and within easy walking distance from the train station and all the older parts of town
