“Located on the fourth floor of a classic building in the heart of the city, this hotel impressed me with its excellent value. The staff's warm welcome and helpful advice made for a comfortable stay, and while some rooms near the restaurant may be a bit noisy, the well-kept accommodations and generous breakfast more than compensate.”
