8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2026
The location was excellent. It was friendly and cozy. The room was exactly as in pictures.
Noisy, as some reviewers said. We had to open the windows because of heat and it opened into the street.

In the city's tourist district, in a convenient location. Comfortable bed, clean shared bathroom, and a hair dryer is provided.
We were given the wrong room number. We arrived at 11:00 p.m. and tried to get into a room where someone else was already staying—because, according to the instructions, that was supposed to be our room. After we clarified in a message that the room was occupied, they simply replied with the number that was actually ours—without an apology for the inconvenience or any further explanation. It was a bit rude and an unpleasant situation.

Its location in the centre is good. The kitchen enables eating in. It has character.
I have used this hotel several times and because there is no reception you have to get a key from a key safe outside by the entrance. The number for this is sometimes sent very close to arrival time, leaving a feeling of uncertainty. On the last occasion there were no towels provided.
6 / 10Average·May 2026
Easy to access although someone had our room when we arrived but we found another with a key in. We were very late. Think there was an error about room numbers. It’s basic but good enough for the one night we stayed. Room quite quirky which I loved. Thin walls so don’t cough too loud otherwise you’ll wake the house.
I wouldn’t want to stay for a week but the location is great.
