The hotel proudly advertises it is a 2 star hotel and I would agree. There were limited amenities and the room I stayed in was fairly small with a bed that moved about a little fairly easily and pillows could use some improvement as they're very small. However, it was exactly what I wanted, clean bed and room, great location walking distance from almost all of the attractions in the area and the staff were friendly and accommodating.

This is the perfect little boutique hotel when visiting this city. First is the location. Situated in and between the two rivers, you are at the exact perfect spot to begin your walking adventures. Old town and the funicular are an easy walk. Plenty of relaxing locations along the rivers and of course tons of caffès and restaurants in every direction. The hotel itself is on the 2nd floor and there is an elevator if you need. The rooms are tiny but clean and modern. The front desk workers are the best you will find anywhere. Extremely polite and helpful. You get an old school key. There is a morning breakfast and be sure to sign up for it the night before.

This 1920s building has retained many original features. My single room had a fireplace but blocked w painted board and not like in picture. The decor is too my liking very eclectic and bathroom is modern. Shower good stream and hot !

Rooms very nice. While the room itself was classic European, the bathroom was very upscale and new. Staff was excellent, friendly, and helpful. Location in old town, on one floor of a residential apartment building, we walked a bit to restaurants. Be aware there are three steps up to the one person elevator and managing luggage is awkward. I am 70 and did fine.

A beautiful hotel with so much history. The rooms are renovated but still have so much of the original feel. Shower is great. The owner is so lovely and took the time to be so welcoming and help us figure out the city. The outdoor door is the only challenge. We should have asked for two keys.
