Very centrally located in the city centre. Easy access to shops and sights. It is located in an slightly older building but it adds to the characters.

Very friendly and competent staff also very helpfull! Atmosfere, because the hotel is just in the center of the town and common room was scarce, there was no social life at the hotell. No plase with real comfortable shairs and sufficient reading light, the only place to stay when not out, was the room. About facilities ,- this question is dubious. About outtdorst f. it was absolute top, but in the middle of a town one can't expect any green areas, swimming pool or easy access to a piscine.

Staff was helpful but didn't have any maps or materials. Room was very noisy (next to a street and a rock club) and basic. Very old furniture, only one power socket right above the door. Clean enough, even tho I spotted some tiny ants right before leaving. Very strange was that there was some plastic-y cover on the mattress, maybe they get a lot of bet wetters? Very authentic bar next door with local drunkards and very helpful and friendly staff.
