The hotel had lovely, spacious, and warm rooms that I would definitely stay in again. Unfortunately, there was an issue with the receptionist not finding my booking, which led to a disappointing experience of having to find alternative accommodation late at night.

The guesthouse has a pleasant location not too far from the city center. The rooms were clean and well-kept, but not as spacious as expected. The service was excellent, and the staff went out of their way to assist. The dining options were decent with a good variety. Overall, a convenient and friendly place to stay.
