Well maintained, small rooms, but extremely comfortable bed. Breakfast (for one morning) was very good, with plenty of variety … begins at 7am, so an excellent choice if you are exploring early for a day trip. You cannot hear anything from rooms beside you (and there were school tour groups in the hotel). There is some outside noise, but this is to be expected inside the city walls near the nightlife. Highly recommended.
