Small hotel in a central location that has retained its charm.Checking in via the tablet attached to the reception definitely requires enclosed instructions. If the reception is not occupied, you have to print out the room code yourself.An explanation about the garage wouldn't be a bad idea either, as the little piece of paper laid out won't seem logical to everyone.I can't say anything about the breakfast because we found it too expensive, €24 per person. and therefore did not use it. A nice surprise was the cleaning of the windshield of our car, something we've never experienced before. Overall a nice hotel, perfect for a short trip.
