Charming Stay Near the Square

great location friendly team

The hotel's location is superb. I found it easy to walk to many attractions. The friendly reception team helped me book a taxi to the airport and recommended a restaurant, and that was nice. The hotel included a hot drinks machine that I used throughout the day..

My room lacked tea and coffee making facilities. I had to bring my own supplies after requesting a kettle. I think those things should be standard.

Charming Stay in Historic Building

central location beautiful building

the location proved central, granting swift access to key areas. i also found the proximity to tour group meeting points quite convenient.. it was merely a short walk. the historical building exterior was beautiful.

I found no tea or coffee making facilities available in the room. one receptionist initially suggested using the breakfast room machine. another later cited a €3 charge for a small cup. this felt inconsistent.

breakfast offered plentiful options alongside diverse choices each morning. the staff maintained constant replenishment, ensuring cleanliness within the area. i found the pastries to be particularly fresh and enjoyable.
