- "Everything was as expected from pictures and descriptions." - "Great location in the old city; Cafe Ole next store was fab! Stylish and had everything we needed." - "loved the apartment style feel with the big windows and prime location" - "The hotel was fantastic and we would stay there again for sure. Loved the view to the street and the room was very well thought out." - "Overall, the space is excellent and clean. I would definitely stay here for a longer time if I needed to. As with everything, there are downsides. As many have noted, there is no elevator, so if you are elderly and have trouble with stairs, this is not the place for you. Also if you were to come here, you would need to think of it as a glorified AirBnB and not really a hotel since hotel staff really doesn't exist. Neither of those things bothered me or my wife, but keep in mind when you are booking."
