Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Bright and big room with a kitchenette and a fireplace, really charming decor, comfortable bed, great ceiling height. Staff is very helpful.

Negative: The water tap in the bathroom was splashing water everywhere. No A/C, only an issue if it's a hot day. Breakfast could have had more variation (no veggies, no cheese, no ham or salami, only hard boiled eggs, no chocolate croissants, etc).

Summary: Great and affordable, will definitely return!
