My room was quite small, I must say. The shared shower and sink weren't always as clean as I'd prefer. I could clearly hear noise from the hallway , made it difficult to fully relax at times.

Excellent Location and Friendly Staff

easy accessdelicious breakfastgreat value
The hotel is right next to the museums and easily accessible by bus and tram to the airport. Breakfasts were delicious (especially the coffee!). Hosts made breakfasts even better, with their quaint decor. I found the value for money great.
The stairs were intense, and there was no AC or fan, so I had to keep the window open at night, which sometimes kept me awake.
