Friendly, charming and convenient. Great for a solo traveler or a group.
Pros:

Both the breakfast and the location were outstanding. The front desk staff were very helpful with dinner suggestions. I only wish we had time to stay longer in this cozy spot.

צוות נהדר, לא לקחת את החדר הזה, אולי חדר אחר יהיה טוב
Pros:

צוות נחמד מאוד, ארוחת בוקר נהדרת

Cons:

החדר (לזוג) היה מתחת לגג, ברוב החדר לא ניתן היה לעמוד, השינה עם הראש ממש מתחת לקיר וצריך לזכור לא לקום ולקבל מכה בראש, מקלחת נקיה אך קטנה מאוד עם דלת לא זכוכית חלבית כך שאם מדליקים אור בלילה החדר מואר
