Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers spacious and modern rooms equipped with all the necessary amenities and more, delivering a very good experience. However, there is a need for a dehumidifier to reduce the dampness and create a more inviting room atmosphere.
The hotel is a charming spot situated right within the Old Town, offering comfortable rooms with a lovely free-standing bath. While the room was spacious and cozy, the limited space around the round bed could be inconvenient. The service provided by the friendly and helpful staff was exceptional, making my stay even more enjoyable. The location is ideal for exploring the Old Town on foot, with numerous cafes and restaurants nearby. The dining experience was delightful, especially with the flakiest pastries served in the bar/restaurant. Overall, a wonderful stay with a few minor room constraints.
