My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was basic but clean and spacious, though it had a strong tobacco smell from the previous occupants. The service was superb, especially considering the great value I got for three nights in January. The location was excellent, with easy access to the central railway station and the Old Town. The dining experience was good, with a decent breakfast selection. Overall, a good stay for a reasonable price.
