"Super clean and modern rooms. The hotel is in a great location, just a few minutes walk from the old town. Delicious breakfast and nice restaurant. We had some nice drinks one evening. The only drawback is the parking. They advertise as “free parking” but they only have 5 or 6 spots in their courtyard. When we stayed there, one car was blocking three spots so we ended up paying for parking in the street. "
