The bed was comfortable. The tea/coffee available in the room was good. It was very noisy because it's on a main road and the windows do nothing to reduce the noise. The building is very old so this was to be expected.

I have stayed at this hotel quite a number of times now. It is old and a bit quirky but I like that. The location in the center of town right opposite the cathedral could not be better. The rooms vary quite a lot from spacious to really small so knowing the rooms helps. On this trip I stayed twice on different dates and on the second stay had room C1 which is excellent and I would try to get again. The windows in the rooms are original and single paned so you do get some road noise in a lot of the rooms. However, C1 has newer windows and much less noise. Overall I will be staying again.

The place is falling apart. "Old and classic" should not mean "dirty and dilapidated". Bathroom stank of mold, moldy dirty windows, threadbare curtains that let the light in, and a broken heater as there is no other heating in the freezing building.
