fantastic stay!

cozy room comfortable bed
i loved the super clean and cozy room with its very comfortable bed. the staff was so friendly and breakfast was great in a lovely setting. i definitely want to return soon! the room decor was good and the bed ensured great sleep.
the room was located right next to the outside seating area. this meant i could hear people talking late into the night and it disrupted my sleep. i think a better room location would have solved this.

The staff had efficient check-in. The hotel felt historic. Heating worked good. It kept us warm.
The location seemed like I slept in a multi-story carpark. Breakfast had balsamic vinegar all over. The fire alarm rang several times early with no apology.
