I enjoyed my stay at the hotel. It is very well located. Close to the city centre and the train station. Marco was a joy to talk to.

The owner was lovely and extremely helpful, he was the best part about this accommodation. We were upgraded on arrival which we were very grateful for. The location is perfect for everything you need and it felt very safe. For a quiet budget accommodation option, this ticked all the necessary boxes.
