Clean & spacious, nice staff, great value.

Very personable hosts offer helpful advice. Nice artwork adorns the walls. Rooms a bit spartan, but clean, comfortable, & very spacious. Buffet breakfast of pastries, fruit, yogurt, cheese. Easy 15-20 min. walk to center of town & most tourist sites. Great value & highly recommended.
