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!

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.
