Stayed in a Comfort Double room. The first room where the TV didn't work was on the mezzanine floor with a window facing the street. Unfortunately it was very easy to see from the outside, so the curtains had to be used permanently. As a result, the room was very dark. After one night we moved to another room that was more spacious and even had a balcony. It really depends on which room you have in the hotel, even in the most expensive category. Annoying: you can't shower without flooding the bathroom.

Nice small hotel in the city center. Location is perfect. Some rooms have a nice view on the church. However, walls are thin and beds&pillows are not comfortable at all. Check-in deposit 25€.

I really liked the location of the hotel it was ideally located for easy access to the old town. The hotel looks like it is built into the old city wall which is clearly visible in the breakfast room. Service on the front desk was good. Breakfast was adequate. I found the room adequate but a little small. The single bed was uncomfortable and there was a lot of noise from outside the hotel like refuse vehicles and leaf blowers which started operating early in the morning. I would stay again but would upgrade to a better room. Pricing was fair.
