Cabin, Balcony (Patio) · 1 Adults · 2 Nights

The place was accessible to almost every touristy spots as it is in the Old Town. The building itself looks and feel historical, you can almost feel the tenants from a century ago, if you know what I mean. I appreciate that they keep the aesthetics with the olden vibes however it can be improved or modernized a bit with some more natural lightings in the hallways towards the end of L2, probably some relaxing music in the reception and activity areas to encourage the guests to use the facilities because it is IG worthy if only they make it more less “old”. I get that it’s a historical place but a little bit of modern touch won’t hurt a thing and constant dusting off (almost everything is wooden). Also, at first I didn’t know that I had to contact the staff prior to checking in, I arrived at the place wondering how to get in LOL. Or where to look at as there is no sign whatsover. Other than those, it was a good stay.
