It’s an old hotel and not the cleanest we’ve stayed in. The AC leaked but did the job well enough and the water pressure was variable. Breakfast was simple but a nice bonus. The location is great and the cost is reasonable. Both the terrace upstairs and the back garden were nice additions. The people who work here are what made it worthwhile for us- super friendly, helpful and kind. ##### Jane Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Humera Apr 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Humera Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Julia Mar 29, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Leider war das Bad verschimmelt.

It was cosy and nice. Quiet, nice view to the historical green wall with birds that sing.. only the room was very tide, small size and cleaning stuff was a bit noisy in the morning, plus, be careful with the breakfast - guess it wasnt vry fresh, i got intoxicated...But in summary, according to the price/quality, I would recommend this 🏩.. though i saw they topped up the price now.. so u think?.. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hasan Jul 3, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### sehr schön Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Personal ##### Hasan Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Mar 23, 2020 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### burçin Mar 9, 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Butik otel kaderi Butik otellerin en basarisizi.
