Very nice boutique-type hotel in a very nice quiet side street. We had a little blip when the property was locked when we got there, but a kind delivery man was very helpful and reached the owner (?) for us. Clean rooms, new bathrooms. They held our luggage while we roamed the town after check-out.

Worst hotel ever - totally overpriced !

Would not recommend staying here! We did not get the room we ordered with double bed but 3 small old children beds that smelled of urine in a shared entrance at a price of over 200 €! There is no climate or balcony. The breakfast is very bad also in this price point, no scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages etc. The front desk could also not see our booking and did not know anything.

The woman running the hotel was very lovely and the breakfast room and breakfast were wonderful. The hotel advertises parking but they do not have it. They have four spots and you are likely not getting one. Also as is sometimes typical in older hotels there is no AC. However they installed the tilt in windows that barely open. Our room was so hot we had to ask for a fan which they gave us but it barely helped. In the halls where the windows opened widely there was plenty of cool air. The hall and first floor were easily 10-15°F cooler than our room. Sleeping was very uncomfortable because of this.
