Really good stay - reasonably priced & unique
Pros:

Stayed in the suite, really liked the privacy feel, given we were in the out-house style section of the hotel. Nice living space and comfortably slept 4 adults, which we were initially worried about.

Cons:

There are very few shops/restaurants in this part of town, particularly late at night or early in the morning. A lot of shops open at 11am, and having arrived to the property at around 22.30pm after travel, we went without food for the evening. Most activity is around the new town, but if you’re into your history and peace/quiet this is probably perfect for you!

Veldig sjarmerende hotell med flotte rom og et usedvanlig hyggelig personale.
Pros:

Litt tungvint at det ikke var frokost el annen mat å få på hotellet, men meget bra frokost vi fikk på stedet hotellet har avtale med.
Veldig hyggelig og hjelpsomt personale. Veldig flotte rom og gullende rent.
