the location was ideal, just a short walk from our planned activities. even though the hotel rooms were a bit compact, they were beautifully presented, clean, and the beds were comfortable.

Not one thing! 😊.

Recently refurbished place, good for a romantic stay. Neat room with a private safe, central heating and an iron, and lovely bed. Comfortable decor throughout and attentive and pleasant staff in all areas. Very central location, a 20-minute walk from a train station. Situated only 1 km from The Y.

Unwelcoming area.

confusing reception signs

I had a relaxing time here, especially enjoying the cozy vibe and a lovely bath for my little spa night. The sun terrace was perfect for chilling with a drink and soaking up some rays. Just a heads up, the reception could use clearer signs, but it didn't ruin my stay! 😊

The room had air conditioning, a tv, and a comfy sofa bed. Super clean with a nice private bathroom with a shower. Fitness centre available for workouts. Staff were great, responsive to requests, and breakfast offered fresh pastries and tasty hot dishes. The car park was a bit tricky to find, though.
