The hotel has a wonderful sense of history, which you can feel in almost every corner. It has a lot of character and a very distinctive atmosphere. Our first room was unfortunately quite small, and we found the beds rather uncomfortable for sleeping. The bathroom also had a traditional sink with 2 separate taps for hot and cold water, meaning you have to mix the water in the basin - charming from a historical point of view, perhaps, but definitely not for everyone. The following day, the hotel kindly moved us to another room, which was much more spacious and comfortable, with a more practical bathroom and a normal mixer tap. Overall, the hotel is very quiet despite its convenient location, and we appreciated how the staff handled our request to change rooms. A beautiful historic property with plenty of character, although the experience can vary considerably depending on the room.
