It was good and there are many sites to visit nearby
Room was definitely cozy, but the hotel had everything you need for a stay. The shower and restroom areas were kept very clean and hotel was quiet. Staff was helpful when I had some trouble checking in and was English friendly.
Exactly what we needed to have a comfortable place to sleep and relax in between hikes and walking the city. Shared bathrooms and showers were surprisingly good!
Great location, very central but down a side street so very quiet! The staff were lovely and very helpful! Amazing stay for what you pay! Highly recommend, also very safe for solo travellers. I will be back to stay again!
