Fantastic stay at a historic gem

The room had a HUGE rail for clothes. It even included an iron and ironing board. An electric fan was also available, which proved useful. The location is Great for the center and city walls. The staff members I encountered were friendly and helpful.
The overhead shower provided water in a flat spray. I didn't like that much.

The bedroom had good size dimensions. The bathroom had a walk in shower. the hotel is right in the centre of town, a short walk to the train station. i appreciated getting a resident discount at dinner in the bar.
The walls were quite thin. I could hear my neighbours a bit.
