The hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of the Old Town, making it easy to explore all the key attractions. The rooms are clean, but some are smaller than expected, which can feel a bit cramped. The staff is generally pleasant, although attention to detail could be improved, especially regarding service. The breakfast options were underwhelming compared to the rest of the experience, and the sauna at an extra cost feels excessive. Overall, it offers decent value for its prime location.

I had a decent stay at this boutique hotel located right in the heart of Old Town. The rooms were stylish but showed some signs of wear, and the friendly staff were efficient but faced challenges with Wi-Fi. While the location was absolutely ideal for exploring, I was quite disappointed with the dining options, especially breakfast, which could use some improvement. Overall, it was a fair price for the value offered, but there are definitely areas that need to be addressed.
