A brilliant little hotel that oozes charm. The hotel has lots of personality and is quite different from the generic mass consumption hotels. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean, there is a communal fridge that can be used, a small library, a terrace, and a lovely little garden. Breakfast was great and had plenty of choices, drinking water bottles are provided for free in the room, and the beds are comfortable. I was very happy with the hotel and I felt more like a guest in an acquaintance's large house rather than in a hotel.

We have a winner!

The check in was Very friendly and the room clean and cozy. The bed was very comfortable and the hotel itself offered small cozy cornersto sit and relax, as well as 2 beautiful terraces. After a comfortable night I was curious about the breakfast, about which everyone had been raving. And indeed! A lot of choices and above all: no awful prefab fruit salad, but real freshly chopped fruit. As well as real scrambled eggs and not from a prefabricated mix. That combined with the service, comfort and price, makes it a winner for me. I will definitely come again

Worth It

Not a fancy place, and it is an old building, but it is well taken care of, they are friendly and very helpful, and the rooms are large, simple and comfortable. It is well worth the price. This is our second time there, and we will gladly stay there again.
