Small clean Boutique hotel on one floor of a building (elevator for luggage only) there are a few flights of stairs to walk up. Hotel is located about a 25 minute walk from the center but in a nice quiet neighborhood. Small breakfast room snd you need to confirm your breakfast time reservation for each day in the evening.

The property is under a 10 minute walk from the Lolli train station. There are a few restaurants and a 24/7 grocery store close by which is nice. About a 20 minute walk to the monuments you’d like to see. Breakfast was good, staff was great. Very nice rooms.

Good hotel

This hotel is about 20 minutes walk from the historic centre. We arrived late and I was concerned about parking but even though they only had 4 spaces - we managed to get one. The reception staff gave us lots of info and a map of where up go etc. No Hotel bar and no garden or nice view from room but good breakfast and lovely staff.
