Friendly staff and large room. Very convenient location for seeing the historic sites and even taking the tram directly to the airport. Only downside was there is no room ventilation and the windows are hard to open. Suspect this is common in historic properties.

The hotel was nice, clean, well decorated. Staff was really really nice and allowed us to drop bags off early. When we returned, they had already taken our backpacks to our room, which was nice because we were completely exhausted and the room was on the third floor (no elevator). Had we brought all our luggage, it would have taken us forever to get large suitcases up those stairs one at a time. Our room was lovely, but pretty small…kinda seemed like an attic. The bathroom was a good size, but the shower was TINY.
