Wonderful and Charming. Would recommend!
Pros:

Super cozy hotel! Our room was perfect - in fact, it was even bigger than we anticipated. Comfort was a solid 10/10. The location is fantastic, with cafes and restaurants just around the corner if you feel like a change from the hotel’s downstairs cafe, which is really good by the way and has a fantastic vibe. There's also 24/7 parking within a walking distance if you need to leave your car ovenight. I'm unsure if the hotel provides parking. Adding the price of our stay/value and everything else into consideration, this is a great place to stay.

Cons:

- The complimentary water was not supplied.
- There is no proper breakfast option, only coffee and pastries which were in fact really good and really appreciated.
- The bathroom shower has no door and one of us almost slipped upon getting out, as the floor gets covered in water easily if you're not careful.
