"This property was very clean and the staff was helpful and polite. They stored our bags for one night while we took an overnight tour knowing we would be back. This property is a 15 minute cab ride from the city center approximately 18-22 Euros."

10/10 Excellent
"Party of 7 consisting of two families, 2 rooms. Stayed 3 nights in June. This hotel is across the river and a bit away from the typical sites but it is beautiful and has anything you may need. Rooms were spacious, clean, quiet. Staff very accommodating. We arrived in a van that didnt meet garage clearance and the staff found parking for us right away. Would stay again without considering other options."
