The staff was very nice. But the rooms were very bad. They had black and red bed sheets seemed clean but I couldn’t dare to sit or sleep in the bed. I checked in, saw the room, checked out right away.
The bad was made.. It looks unmade here because I moved the pillows etc

A really lovely place

We stayed for a night and had a lovely time. The people who worked there were so lovely and accomodating. The room was really clean, the bed was super comfy and the coffee/tea station in the room was really nice. We had breakfast in the morning and it was absolutey delicious. Overall a 10/10 stay.
