I found parking just next to the front door convenient. My room and bathroom were both very spacious. It was easy to settle in. The area not sketchy at all to walk around, even late at night.

The mini bar selection was quite limited. It would be nice to see a few more options there.

The hotel's proximity to the Castle and Main Square was convenient. It was about a ten-minute walk. Our room felt spacious, and the bathroom was also very large. The breakfast included cheese, meats, fruit, yogurts, breads, and local delicacies. The staff provided very helpful local information.

The furniture under the coffee machine looked stained, and there was a similar issue under the chafing dish.
