I would happily stay at this delightful haven again.
Pros:

Although our room and bathroom were tiny - as I knew in advance, - they, like all rooms there, were charmingly decorated, equipped. and painted. It was a joy to wake up to. Likewise, the lounge area by the garden and reception was a haven to be in. It was also the area where we were served an excellent breakfast. Our hosts could not have been more welcoming, caring and friendly. They made us feel like we were with old friends. We also liked that a number of restaurants (and apparently shops (although we did not go to any) were in easy walking distance on streets that were well maintained and felt very safe.

Cons:

Really nothing.

Perfectly pleasant place to soak in over a century of history
Pros:

The owners were extremely accommodating and generous with their time Super conveniently located. Outdoor space is a bonus for a inner city hotel
The decor is very sweet with many little touches around every corner This is a rare historic find that transitions you to a bygone era. Great breakfast

Cons:

While a adapted, travellers might want to be aware that there is no hot water but showers are surprisingly pleasant
The rooms are small but fit the era of the hotel
