I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. The location was convenient, the staff was exceptionally friendly, and the dining experience was top-notch. However, the neighborhood might not be everyone's cup of tea, and the Wi-Fi was not included in the price.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were nice and clean, though the carpet seemed a bit shabby. The antique decor gave a dated feel, but it was a bit cluttered. The lack of a fridge was a downside for me in terms of space, considering the room was smaller than expected but still comfortable. The price was fair, but I wish it included a fridge for added convenience.

The hotel is located within walking distance of popular attractions and offers a cozy, antique ambiance. The rooms, while varying in amenities, are on the smaller side and some renovation is needed. The service is friendly and knowledgeable, adding character to the visit. The dining options are fresh and varied, with a highlight on German meats and baked goods. The location is convenient, with easy access to downtown and free shuttle service.

It felt like staying in a royal palace - the old building ambiance with squeaky floorboards and high ceilings made it cozy and quiet, equipped with high-quality materials. A touch of history with all the comforts you need. The only downside is that it's not your typical modern hotel.

I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were nice, with an old-fashioned charm and plenty of space. The linens were great, and the comfy cotton robe provided a cozy touch. The hotel was conveniently located within walking distance to dinner and attractions, although more electric plug space beside the bed would have been helpful.

I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms are very charming, located right across from the front door and the reception area, next to the outdoor patio. They had all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay, including a hairdryer, ironing board, and even a safe to keep valuables secure. The decor is lovely, especially with beautiful windows. The service was excellent, with the staff being very friendly and accommodating. The location is convenient, with a free shuttle service to downtown that takes around 20 minutes on foot. The dining experience was top-notch, offering award-winning pastries, fruit, breads, meats, and cheeses. Overall, a great place to stay!
