a charming escape in a historic setting

prime locationlaundry facilitiescharming courtyard

I found the location to be convenient, just a short walk to the city center across beautiful bridges. the hotel provided laundry facilities and spacious common areas. It seemed like a true home away from home. the neighborhood was filled with gems, including an amazing bakery and a cozy bar with a charming courtyard.

Our room faced the front street and an old heavy door. This made it slightly loud at times.

The beautiful double or twin room featured high ceilings that added a sense of spaciousness. it included generous amounts of high quality shampoo, shower gel and conditioner. That elevated the experience. free water bottles were also provided.

we discovered a most beautiful hotel. the room felt spacious and cozy. the location allowed us access to everything. the garden was a serene oasis in a busy city. we loved the historical vibe of the building.

the noise from upstairs was disruptive, as it sounded like dancing every night. earplugs and white noise apps helped us sleep. it was disappointing to rely on these to mitigate the disturbance.

the accommodation allowed us to store our luggage after check-out, a service we appreciated. this allowed us to further explore. we were able to visit local sights without being burdened by luggage.

My room was next to the restaurant. Loud music played from morning to late night so I could not rest.
