The hotel offered a lackluster experience with uncomfortable and outdated rooms smelling of smoke, but the service was super lovely and helpful. The central location had its advantages but was noisy at night, and the dining options were subpar though reasonably priced.

The hotel has a convenient location right in the middle of town, close to various restaurants and a short walk from the train station. The rooms need some attention, as they were dated and had a cold, sulfur-like smell that made the stay less enjoyable. The service was decent, with friendly staff albeit a minor issue of a freezing room due to open windows. The dining options were limited, offering only basic choices, and the facilities, while modest, were sufficient for a short stay.

The hotel has a fascinating late 19th-century atmosphere but needs modernizing. The rooms are slightly basic but certainly adequate, although they didn't feel very clean. The staff delivered bags to the room but the dining experience was disappointing. The location holds a lot of history but needs a facelift.
