Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests overwhelmingly appreciate the hotel's central location, making it convenient for exploring the city and accessing nearby attractions. Many also mention the building's historical charm and unique atmosphere. However, cleanliness is a recurring issue, with several guests reporting dirty rooms, bathrooms, and common areas. Noise from the bar below and street is a frequent complaint, especially at night. Service receives mixed feedback, with some finding staff friendly and helpful, while others experienced unresponsiveness or disorganization. Bed comfort is mentioned both positively and negatively, but not as frequently as other aspects. Overall, the location and character stand out as highlights, but improvements in cleanliness and noise control are needed.
