Hotel highlights
About this property
Hotel description and useful information for travellers
Mixed feedback: some guests report rooms were clean, but multiple mentions of stains, odd smells, dirty/aged carpet and comments that places could be cleaner.
Consistently praised across reviews: friendly, helpful and attentive staff; several guests explicitly highlight excellent service.
Very strong: repeatedly described as perfect/excellent and right by the old town/wall with great views; occasional parking challenges mentioned.
Rooms often described as spacious, well-decorated and comfortable; some negatives noted (very soft beds, broken toilet seat, limited soundproofing).
Standout features like the extensive book collection, themed decor and on-site restaurant; breakfast and hotel character are praised (some isolated complaints about flies and a storage-room smell).
Mixed perceptions: many guests felt the stay exceeded expectations, but a few reviewers questioned the 4-star designation or noted outdated elements, lowering perceived value for some.
