Hotel was a quaint hotel and very walkable to Mirabell and Oldtown. Short walk from the main train station. The area around the hotel is good. Several good restaurants in the area or a short walk. The rooms were spacious and very clean. We enjoyed our stay here. We booked through Expedia but they said we didn't pay so just be sure to check your card for payment ahead of time. Overall a great boutique hotel.

We absolutely loved our stay. This is a lovely boutique hotel close to the train station. It was easy to walk into the town center but the area around the hotel is not as quaint. It was helpful to be close to the train station. The room was spacious and it was really nice to have a separate toilet and sink. Great staff and lovely hotel. I wish the breakfast was less expensive for Hotel guests
