5/5
We really enjoyed our stay here. It felt like a clean, quiet, calm oasis. The breakfast was an INCREDIBLE value - very large, delicious, and satisfying. The water pressure in the shower was some of the best I've ever seen. The location is very good. We were worried it might be a bit too far off the beaten path, but it was a 5-10 minute walk to everywhere we wanted to go and the street was very quiet and suited to a good night's sleep. This hotel DOES have some quirks - no elevator, the entrance is not on the ground floor, and the sign is quite small. But frankly, all of these things are standard for small European hotels. None of these facts were misrepresented, to my view, prior to booking (it was not listed as having an elevator or being accessible on the booking method I used). It has A/C that works very well which is a rare feature in my experience. We parked in the recommended garage which was easy to use and find, and the whole experience was very nice and easy from start to finish.

Our stay was perfect , the room exactly as it was advertised , stylishly decorated and in a great location central to everything . Great restaurants within an easy 10 minute walk. Our hosts were very accomodating and made great suggestions for restaurants. The breakfast was superb a full buffet breakfast showcasing local cuisine could not finish it there was so much food. Wish I could give 10 stars.
