In un altro mondo, proprio di fronte alla cattedrale

Posizione
Atmosfera dell'hotel: sembra di essere 50 anni indietro
Dispenser acqua a disposizione

Hotel senz'altro caratteristico ma forse avrebbe bisogno di qualche piccolo accorgimento più moderno

Pros:

Sijainti oli erinomainen ja majapaikka tunnelmallinen. Meidän huoneessamme oli toimiva ilmastointi, mikä tuli tarpeeseen. Kaikissa hotellin huoneissa ilmastointi ei kuitenkaan toiminut, joten kannattaa olla tarkkana valinnassa.

Cons:

Huoneemme ikkunat oli tasanteelle, josta käveltiin hotellin ravintolaan ja ravintolasta sen julkisiin vessoihin. Siten makuutilamme vierestä käveltiin jatkuvasti. Ikkunoista ei nähnyt sisälle huoneeseen, mutta tunne oli epämiellyttävä. Onneksi ravintolassa ei ollut suurta trafiikkia eli negatiivinen tunne tuli vain siitä, että tuntemattomia ihmisiä saattoi seisoa ja jutella aivan lasi-ikkunan takana siitä, missä nukuimme. Ikkunoista ei näkynyt läpi muuten kuin valoa, joten jos on herkkä valolle, tämä huone olisi ollut vaikea.

A dark hole in a bright spot
Pros:

Perfect location, classical music at the reception. Many of the receptionist were helpful.

Cons:

One of the receptionists serving on the afternoon of 15 July, a lady with glasses was rude. We did not like the room as it is an otherwise lovely medieval room, but huge beams (both horizontal and vertical) require ballet movements, bending and avoiding. The room only had a roughly half square meter window, overlooking the opposite house, 4 meters away. So day and night you needed the lamps. I asked the receptionist if we could move to another, room with more light and less obstacles in the coming five days we planned to stay, but she claimed none would be available. That is unlikely as people were constantly checking out. Demading for such a dark hole more than 110 euros per night WITHOUT BREAKFAST, even with Genius 2 level, is a robbery in my assessment.

Great location in the old town, some quirks
Pros:

Very friendly staff, good size room with air conditioning, comfy beds and great views from the rooftop terrace. Fantastic location in the old town.

Cons:

The shower door wouldn't close tightly, so water escape the shower and accumulated on the floor, the walls were thin enough to hear neighbouring guests snoring.
