    The property is well located and only a short walk from the main area. The hotel was nice and clean and had a lot of character. The property has beautiful views.

    Very friendly staff, safe and secure.

    No elevator, it's difficult lugging luggage up all the stairs. Rooms are tiny.

    Emplacement, staff and breakfast

    Small window, so that was a little bit complicated to get fresh air in the room

    Private bathroom

    Had two rooms. In one room - rained one night, leaked from window on roof onto bed. Other room - hot and stuffy but window was next to patio. Had to listen to people talking and smell smoke.

    10KehoePosted on: 1-19-2026

    Lovely friendly staffHot shower.Light and curtain on bed

    10ValeriaPosted on: 1-15-2026

    It’s really close to the city center. The room was really clean and neat.

    Thin walls the couple next to me fought the whole night but it was not worth complaining.

    7JanePosted on: 1-11-2026

    It was true to its word and had lots of public meeting areas

    The property is set on quite a hill, so it was a little difficult to carry a lot of bags up

    8LouisePosted on: 1-9-2026

    Nice breakfast. Plenty of spaces to relax with a great kitchen. Love the privacy curtains in the bunks.

    Small rooms.

    4EmilyPosted on: 1-7-2026

    Close to the city centre

    Our room was very small, the beds were uncomfortable. It was cold despite the radiator being turned on.The bathroom window was stuck open with no way of closing. The shower temperature was lukewarm. Noise was a real problem, we were kept up all night by the noise of other guests, who were speaking at normal volume but we could hear them like they were in the room because of the open bathroom window.The stay was expensive and not good value for money.
