“A wonderfully small and unique place, with local food served for an à la carte breakfast. The service was terrific, and the location is ideal and exceptionally nice, next to the river and just 1 km from an arched bridge. The standard queen room had an electronic key card, tea and coffee equipment, and a TV. Hypoallergenic pillows and a very comfy bed.”
