The hotel is located in a quiet area, close to various points of interest and shopping streets. The rooms are not very fresh but are spacious, and the staff is gentle and helpful. The dining options lack variety, but the hotel offers what you need after a day of walking. The centrality to tourist sites is hard to beat.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were nice and clean, but they lacked a relaxing atmosphere with just basic amenities. However, the perfect location with views of a beautiful garden and a comfortable bed made up for it. The service was friendly overall, though there were some instances of lack of professionalism. The central location near cafes and attractions was a definite plus, but the dining options were limited. The facilities met expectations for a comfortable stay.

The hotel is incredibly well-located, near the downtown area and various amenities. The rooms are spacious, clean, and ready early for check-in, although they face the bar's roof area. The service is friendly and helpful, with apologies offered generously. The dining experience is average, with fair options but room for improvement in variety.

I absolutely loved the typical charm of this independently run hotel, offering great value for money. The two separate bedrooms were a convenient touch, although being street-side, it didn't turn out as quiet as expected.
