We recently stayed at this very cozy boutique hotel and had a wonderful experience. The place has a charming, old-world feel with a lovely historic vibe that made it feel unique and special. The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. Another big plus was the location there were plenty of shops and restaurants within easy walking distance, which made exploring the area so convenient.

Good value for the time of year. Staff were welcoming and helpful. Room was ok but we suspect it had not been used for a while and could benefit from a deep cleaning. A nice historic vibe.
