6/10
I met a few members of the hotel staff and they were all lovely and friendly. The breakfast was quite basic but fine, and the small cafe/bar at the entrance was a nice place to sit for a while and relax. The room was spacious - I did not expect to have a version, living room, separate toilet and a bathroom so that was a nice surprise. The location was perfect and I was able to walk everywhere.
For these reasons, I am regret that I need to give a bad review only because of one, but a significant reason. The hotel claims to be non-smoking, and even confirmed this adter booking in a message. However, it has clearly not been like this forever and the hotel reeks of cigarettw smoke. I joined a workshop held in one of the meeting rooms, and already during the second day I was having hard time breathing due to my mild asthma, all because of the residual smoke. Also all my clothing smelled bad after only three nights there. I understand that it's an old building and there's only so much you can do, but changing the carpets, curtains and furniture and painting the walls would already help quite a bit. I would love to recommend this hotel, but now I simply cannot. At least mention before booking that smoking has been allowed sometime before, please.
