Good location. Try to get a room near the front of the hotel as back rooms are very noisy due to bar on the street in the back.

The beds are very nice, the location is great, room is clean but there is no AC and the building in general is very warm, not recommended for a summer stay

It was very clean and in a great location! Staff was very nice. It was a bit stuffy in the room, which only had a small fan on a dresser. Also, our window only opened partially due to a plexiglass barrier.

Hotel was good, not great. Rooms are very small and there are steps needed even with the elevator. There is no storage area for clothes, so living out of a suitcase was necessary but not wanted. That meant using precious floor space for open suitcases. Good location near the old city. Didn't try breakfast.

We stayed here for two nights. Our experience was more like renting an apartment from a private person that a room in a hotel. The reception desk was not available at check in, and few times I needed something for my room maybe after 4 pm. Overall room was clean but everyone who rent a room should be aware of the church bells that go off every 15 minutes, even during the nights.

Excellent location just off the lake near pedestrian bridge allowing for easy access to dining and amazing views of the city. Close to the train station. Adorable balcony to overlook the square, but the fountain was drained so was not able to enjoy that. There is a church right across from the hotel, which means frequent bell ringing, although we found them not to be too loud. We checked in on a Sunday, so there was no reception open, which was unusual and potentially inconvenient although we had no problems.

4/10

overall, I don't like it and will not recommend it. it is convenient, however, the room is very small, without air conditioning. it was very warm. by opening the widow overnight, I got street noise as well as a large number of mosquito bites.

We came in very tired from our overseas flight. It was a very hot day. Check in has humorous because the innkeeper had her dog there and the sweet puppy wasn’t used to being there, and annoyed the old dog that the person in front of us had. She, the innkeeper was very sweet. We were super tired so we barely took in any sights before crashing. We woke up at 11:05 and scrambled to get everything together as check out was 11:00. The person who checked us out seemed annoyed or maybe ready for us to be gone as he didn’t ask how our stay was and seemed put out that we asked to leave our luggage for a bit while we went to find some coffee. The room seemed clean but it must have been the first day of fan use, due to the heat, because the partition wall to the bathroom had a layer of dust on it that snowed all over the floor in that area of the room. Lovely little hotel, but be sure you check out on time!

The good; Historic building. Next to a the beautiful Franciscan church. The not so good: as a hotel, the facilities match the age of the building. There is no air conditioning it was a hot night, and we had to keep the windows open. The church bells Rand all night, at each quarter hour, and tolled out the hour. We were leaving the room at 11:10 am. The housekeeper, with her best Frau Blucher impression, reprimanded us for not leaving the room at 11 am.

古風なヨーロッパの雰囲気を感じることができるホテル。かなりローカルなホテルなので、旅慣れしてない人やビジネス出張の方にはお薦めできません。スタッフは親切です。ただチェックインとチェックアウトは従業員が少ないこともあり少し時間がかかります。観光目的で地元に滞在して楽しむ人にはお薦めしたいです。
