The hotel boasts a central location close to the old town and shopping area, making it perfect for exploring. The rooms are generally quiet and comfortable, but the dim lighting was a bit of a challenge for working. The staff was helpful, though some were not as friendly as I would have hoped. Overall, it’s a nice stay but could improve in certain areas.

I had a pretty good stay at the hotel. The location is fantastic, right at the start of the shopping street and surrounded by lovely shops and cafes. The rooms were spacious, but mine had some noise issues and was a bit dark. The service was friendly, but not all staff were as helpful. Overall, it’s a solid choice but slightly marred by the noise and light situation in the room.

The hotel has a great location in a nice part of town, perfect for exploring nearby restaurants and shops. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, which was a relief after a long drive. However, I found the maintenance issues in the rooms disappointing, especially since the fourth floor was supposedly newly renovated. Service could use some improvement, as the staff was friendly but lacked attention to detail during my stay.

The rooms were well presented and had comfortable beds, although the dim lighting made it a tad challenging for working. The staff were friendly and very helpful throughout my stay. The location was great, right in the Old Town with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. However, the breakfast didn't quite meet my expectations, and I think it could be improved.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were clean and located quietly at the back, they could use more maintenance and attention. The location can't be beat—being right in the old town and surrounded by great restaurants is a huge plus. However, the service was lacking at times, and the dining options, though appealing, felt overpriced.

The hotel offers a great location right in the middle of the old town, but the rooms leave much to be desired as they're not properly maintained.
