What guests report

View
Best views: St. Peter's Church from upper floors, courtyard views offer quiet charm; Worst: street-facing rooms overlook bars/restaurants with noise and bright nighttime illumination
Bed & mattress
Universally praised as extremely comfortable with high-quality mattresses; some complaints about two single mattresses joined uncomfortably in middle of doubles
Bathroom & water
Modern, clean, spacious bathrooms with some reports of low water pressure, inadequate drainage, leaky bathtubs, and fixtures too tall to climb in/out of safely
Wi-Fi
Generally works well throughout hotel but some complaints of weak signal on higher floors and occasional slowness during peak times
Breakfast
Outstanding buffet with wide variety of hot (eggs, meats, vegetables), cold (cheese, cured meats, salads), pastries, and fresh fruit; crowded and chaotic service at peak times in small pub space
AC / heating
Unreliable; many rooms lack working air conditioning, some charge extra daily fees (€2-4 per pod), and heating fails in winter rooms; units break down during peak seasons
Elevator
Unreliable

Local knowledge

Request a courtyard/building 7 room if you value silence; street-facing rooms are significantly noisier due to bars and restaurants below.
Breakfast is served in the adjoining 'Two More Beers' pub next door (5-10m walk); arrive early or late to avoid crowded buffet chaos.
Some buildings lack elevators; confirm this at booking if you have heavy luggage or mobility concerns.
