The inside interior is a bit tired. My room was in the basement and it was a strong smell of cleaning solution, like if they tried to hide another smell. Small but functional room. Bed comfy, room had a table. Breakfast were good. Location is amazing and it’s like you get what you pay for.

Was ok but a mouse was in the room when I arrived. Ran under my bed and although I didn’t see it again, it was still a bit unnerving

The hotel’s location is excellent particularly for those travelling on their own. However considerate more like a bed and breakfast than a hotel. There is no lift, staircase is narrow so carrying multiple suitcases is a challenge. The decor is in need of attention. Bathrooms are clean. Expect basic simplicity it worked perfect for me.
