I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which is conveniently located just steps away from the historic part of town. The rooms are clean and spacious, making for a comfortable experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, particularly during my last-minute changes to the booking. However, the noise levels from the corridors were a bit distracting, and the dining options could use some improvement.

I had a pretty decent stay at this hotel. The location is absolutely fantastic, right in the heart of the old city, which made exploring easy. The staff were genuinely kind and very helpful throughout my visit. However, the room insulation could be better; I could hear too much noise from the corridors and street light peeking through at night. Overall, it's a nice place but might need some improvements in those areas.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is ideally located in the medieval center, close to all the historical sites and plenty of restaurants. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. However, the rooms, while clean and cozy, could use a bit of soundproofing as I could hear noises from the corridors. Overall, it's a great value for the price, especially considering the location and service.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of town, making it perfect for exploring. The staff was friendly and helpful, but the room had some issues, especially with the sewer smell and temperature fluctuations. The dining options were decent, but a bit lacking in variety. Overall, it offers great value for money given its location but has room for improvement in other areas.
