Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is superb, right in the heart of the city and close to many attractions. The rooms are cozy and clean, but having a shared bathroom was a bit inconvenient. The service was good overall, but they could improve the training of their receptionist. The dining options were satisfactory, with delicious Danish pastries available. The facilities were decent, providing everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
I found the hotel to be in a charming location, nestled in a lovely garden and very central. The room with a king-size bed and shared bathroom was cozy, but not having its own bathroom was a bit inconvenient. The service was pleasant, although they could benefit from more training for the receptionist. The homemade jams offered during dining were a delightful touch. Overall, a good value for money stay with some minor drawbacks.
