In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Outstanding staff — Guests consistently mention the welcoming, helpful owners and staff, who arrange day trips, offer local advice, and prepare early breakfasts for departures before the usual time.
  • Central location — A block from the main square, with museums, cathedrals, and historic buildings within walking distance, and the History Museum of the North about a five-minute walk away.
  • Clean and comfortable rooms — Guests describe rooms as spotless, spacious, and comfortable, with frequent bathroom cleaning in shared facilities.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Some rooms share bathrooms — Not all room types have private bathrooms; a few reviews mention shared bathrooms, which are cleaned regularly.
  • Breakfast is basic — While guests appreciate the spread, one review notes it was basic, though fruit variety was a plus.
  • Card payments carry a surcharge — Paying by credit card incurs an extra fee, so cash is the smoother option for settlement.
  • No pets and no smoking — Pets are not allowed on the property, and smoking is prohibited, which may limit some guests.
