Authentic stay
Pros:

A charming, authentic establishment with historic appeal. The rooms are on the first floor, whilst the ground floor houses a bar and the restaurant, where you can enjoy traditional dishes and drinks in a cosy atmosphere.
The restaurant and bar close quite early, so they won’t disturb your sleep.

Pros:

Snídaně a jidelna

Cons:

DD, je naprosto nevhodné, abyste poskytovali ubytování v den, kdy pořádáte hudební akci. Prodat někomu pokoj přímo nad místností, kde duní rocková kapela, přišlo příšerné i Vašim zaměstnancům. My jsme natolik solidní, že jsme Vám dali hodnocení hotelu 8 a nehodnotili to, co jsme po celodenním výletu u Vás zažili. Doufáme, že i Vy se zachováte solidně a poskytnete nám dodatečně alespoň slevu na ubytování. Pokud ano, kontaktujte nás mailem, rádi Vám sdělíme číslo našeho bankovního účtu. Hezký den a přejeme spoustu takových vydařených akcí.... Ovšem bez hotelový hostů K. a V.
