No staff about but sort of worked
Useful location but on arrival no one there and had to call to get access. Not very welcoming. High degree of utility. Nice artworks. Didn’t see any staff at all when I left so went on my way leaving the key as indicated in a glass jar

Comfortable room, but we had a room at the front of the building and lots of traffic noise.

The best thing was the area, several good eating spots and was convenient for the university where I was at a conference, however I would not choose to stay here again, I felt it was very overpriced for what it was. I was in a small single room which felt very dated and a bit shabby. One out of three mornings I had no hot water

Beautiful old building. Local neighborhood feel. Great porridge. Hot showers. Very clean and modern bathroom. Our room was at the back and so very quiet. Restaurants to walk to. Owners were very pleasant and helpful. Easy to get to city center via bus. Enjoyed our stay.

Management responded instantly so I believe they are very invested in their customers. I think the bed mattress should be upgraded. The bathroom floor in our room was a bit water logged and grout needed to be cleaned. I do think this is a safe hotel with a good rate per night.

The lady in charge was friendly and helpful. There was only Continental breakfast available, and that was limited and cost extra. I booked here because my usual guest house was not available, paid quite a bit more for a top floor room with sloping roof and very small window.

Not Impressed
Where too begin, our room located ground floor. The door bell constantly rang, the bell must of been located outside our door. First morning, fire alarm goes off at 0630brs nil brigade called. Smoke seen in the basement area, shower steam blamed for the alarm. Mattress was like blanks of wood, pillows thin. Property is in a good location, so you are paying money for this area. Also messaged the property the day of check in to ask if I could leave luggage there before 2pm, still no response.

Not worth the cost, compared 2 other spots in town
After walking from the train station (about an 30 minute walk), we were greeted with a note stuck on the door that said nobody was there to serve us. Thatvif we were guests with reservations (which we were) to call the number on the note. Neither number worked. After about 15 minutes of trying to figure it out amd wondering what to do, the manager arrived and seemed surprised to see us. We got our keys and went up the 3 flights of winding stairs that didn't look very sturdy and made it to our room. The bed was super firm. Bathroom was very clean. Floors were not in good condition.
