Excellent Stay

convenient locationkind receptionistluggage service
The location was really convenient for exploring. The receptionist was very kind I arrived early, and they stored my bags at 0900 until check-in at 1500. They checked me in and gave me the keys for when I returned. My bags were brought up to my room on the 3rd floor.
The stairs were narrow, so it was a little difficult to carry my luggage up.
Service
10/10
The staff provided excellent assistance. Before I checked in, the hotel emailed a list of restaurants for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and coffee shops. I felt very comfortable because the staff was friendly and helpful with any questions. Umbrellas were also available at the door .
Rooms

The room was super clean and beautiful I felt very comfortable. There was loads of hot water and air conditioning. The bed was comfortable. There was space to spread out a bit and the windows allowed me to let in the cooler air.

charming stay in a great location

charming roomgreat locationeasy transportnarrow staircase
i found the room on the fourth floor very charming. it seemed like being on a boat (very fitting for this city!). it was a good size for our family. the location was fantastic. i found lots of great places to eat nearby and getting around was very easy. i walked a lot and used the tram occasionally.
the stairs were very narrow. it was difficult to carry luggage to our room. i think an elevator would be a helpful addition to the hotel.
