I stayed at this hotel and had a mix of experiences. The rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable, but I wasn't entirely sure if the sheets had been changed. I had to wait for my room for 45 minutes before deciding to move to another hotel nearby, where I enjoyed a pastry in a lovely cafe area. The location was great, close to everything but on a quiet street. The service was lacking tourist information but the staff were pleasant and efficient. The dining area was fine but could only accommodate a few guests, offering a view of the yard and street. Overall, it's a good value for money if you only need a place to sleep.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was clean and had a very comfortable bed, but lacked attention to detail like missing toilet paper. The heating was a bit of an issue, only coming on at 5 pm after multiple requests. The service was top-notch with friendly and helpful staff. The location was practical, in a quiet neighborhood but still close to the city center. The dining experience was okay, offering a continental breakfast with some good quality options.
