Small and familiar hotel with super friendly and helpful staff. Bright and modern rooms. Free parking. Breakfast is served at the table so you don't have to move an inch. Situated a short walk from the main city centre. They don't have a lift so if you are in need of a lift, this is not the best choice. Only thing I was missing was a fridge in the room but apparently I survived without it. 😁

We stayed for three nights in June. The staff were friendly and efficient and the room (across the street in an annexe) was clean, well-equipped and comfortable.  …

We stayed here for only one night. The staff was most helpful in getting us directions to a site we wanted to see. The food was very good, the room ample and the bed comfortable. Right across the street from a supermarket.  …

Pay attention to check in times! The hotel was closed when I arrived, the room had been booked for me well im advance. No mobile/emergency number was available, meaning no room for me!
