Really good stay in a renovated historic building

spacious room comfortable bed good breakfast convenient parking
The hotel room was spacious and very clean. I slept well on the comfortable beds. The breakfast selection offered good quality items. The building provides access to a nearby museum. This was REALLY convenient. The parking was also good.
The bar area felt a little like an airport lounge. IT needs some adjustments.

shower drainage structural issue
I encountered a problem with the shower. Drainage was clearly insufficient, water seeped into the toilet area and even into the room. I reported this to the service desk. I was promised a repair for the next day but it did not happen. At checkout, the reception staff acknowledged a structural issue affecting shower drainage in ALL rooms. It is a big issue for a 5-star hotel!
