While the extremely small lobby had us concerned when we were first checking in, we ended up having a wonderful time here. Spotless room, air conditioning that works great, comfy bed and everything you could ask for that close to the heart of Old Town.

Location in Old Town is convenient, can walk to various restaurants and it is in a quiet part of town. Rooms are big and clean. The breakfast is not good, very small area with only two kinds of cereal, mini muffins and make your own waffles, they do have coffee and a juice machine.

Very nice hotel, I would definitely recommend it for a solo traveller or even a group traveller. It is around a 10 min walk to the bus/trolley station which isn't bad. Peaceful and nice area, restaurants nearby, and also a convenient store(not so much in the vicinity) The breakfast is okay, don't expect too much, just the basic but still does the Job.

Nice accommodations. This site is a basic no frills hotel. Room was very clean. Complimentary continental breakfast was very simple: waffle, cereal, mini- muffins and bread for toast along with coffee & juices. Close to Old Town attractions and walkable there for most people.
