Lovely small hotel in quiet neighborhood near public transport and museums Very clean. Our double bed room was spacious enough and beds were comfortable. The only issue for us was the steps into our building, which was not easy for those with any mobility issues. We would highly recommend this property

Centralized and easy to get around by walking but we didn’t love that there’s no AC because the room can get quite hot. There was a fan though in the room.
