I enjoyed my stay at the hotel, which is located right in the heart of the old town by the lake. The rooms were clean, but I did find them a bit small for my taste. The staff was incredibly friendly, making me feel welcomed throughout my visit. I was delighted by the various dining options available, although the breakfast could use a little more variety. Overall, it’s a great spot if you want to be close to the historical city center and have a comfy place to come back to after exploring.
