Top hotel
Pros:

De ligging zeer goed.
Midden in het oude centrum
Sfeer van het hotel was zeer gezellig.

Cons:

De trappen na de hotel kamers ze hebben geen lift.
Als je met grote koffer na je kamer moet lopen is het geen pretje.
En voor oudere mensen is het geen pretje om zoveel trappen te lopen.
We waren op de bovenste etage.
Verder heel mooi hotel.
Goede ligging.
Ontbijt is echt top zeker de moeite waard.
Ondanks de trappen is het zeker aanrader.

The staff were fabulous, the location was great and the showers really good.
Pros:

I liked the ease of access. It was wonderful to be able to explore by foot

Cons:

After a couple of hours, the bed felt hard. Softer pillows might help. The stairs are steeper and more numerous than I expected but fine if able bodied. I liked the hotel overall

top top place
Pros:

Just back from three nights here. Absolutely wonderful stay.
The rooms were fantastic as was the location...there are dozens of bars and places to eat within a couple of minute walk.
Staff were great, helpful and thoughtful. Rooms were clean and were so quiet which surprised us given its central location.
We could not fault it. If you want to stay close to the action....but still maintain a peaceful stay there is no other choice
