The hotel is perfectly located, right in the heart of the old town center and close to various attractions. The rooms are cozy and include a lovely rolltop bath, but some investment is needed to enhance the property. The service is commendable, with dedicated staff, though improvements from management are necessary. Enjoy the vibrant location; however, bear in mind the noise from nearby nightlife. Dining options are available but not included in the stay, offering decent quality. Overall, a decent stay with room for enhancement.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is just perfect, right in the heart of the old town center and close to all the historic sites. The rooms were cozy and had a full-size rolltop bath, although they didn't quite match the quality of the photographs. The service was top-notch, with hard-working and very helpful staff, even though it seems like management could invest more in the property. Dining wasn't included, but the French toasts I ordered were delicious. Overall, a great value for money option with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel is set right in the old town center, close to historic sites, and in the center of the main wall. It's a great location, but it could use some refurbishment.

The hotel is in a prime location, near all the sights to see and right in the heart of the old town center. The rooms hadn't been cleaned, and the beds weren't changed, but at least they were equipped with two single beds and a new walk-in shower. The service was commendable, with hard-working and helpful staff; however, the management should invest more in the property. The dining service, although not included, offered tasty crêpes. The facilities were adequate, with a standout as the close proximity to everything.
