Sehr zentral gelegen aber trotzdem ruhig. Kleines Manko, dass ich an einem Freitag (obwohl allein unterwegs) ohne Reservierung keinen Platz im Restaurant ergattern konnte (bzw. Tisch wäre erst 1 Stunde später verfügbar) - es gibt aber in der Altstadt viele anderen Restaurants. Frühstück war sowas von toll: kein normales Frühstücksbuffet, sondern pro Gast/Zimmer/Gruppe frisch servierten Optionen mit reichlichen Brotkörben, Käse/Schinkenplatten sowie Ei und Kaffee/Saft nach Wunsch. Buffet gab es “lediglich” für die riesigen Obstplatte (sowie Yogurt, und ich glaube auch Cornflakes oder sowas gesehen zu haben)

This quaint hotel is only a few doors down from the square where the market is. It is so convenient to access the square, the shops and all the restaurants. The hotel is very old and has a lot of character! We got our laundry done here and they had it back the same day! The restaurant is great, the goulash is delicious. The breakfast is well presented and there is lots to eat. The staff were very friendly. I would stay here again.

Amazing. In good meaning, the price doesn't match the service. Location is just next to central, the building is historical and nostalgic. The price is under 100 usd per night even though breakfast is included.

first, what we did not like was there is no elevator and we stayed on the 3rd floor. the second set of stairs curves and was narrow. it was had to drag our luggages to out room and they have no staff to help with the luggages. the location was good as it was at the old town and close to all sights to see.
