“This place strikes me as exceeding expectations for a 3-star, especially given its central Bautzen location. I appreciate the blend of historical ambiance-that winding staircase sounds particularly charming-with the modern amenities, like in-room kitchenettes, that make longer stays comfortable. It's the kind of detail that makes me confident recommending it.”
