Not too bad, considering the moderate price. However, when we wanted to dine there, the manager did not want us to eat our dinner at the terrace outside, especially because no windows were open. . Unthinkable behaviour in covid-times. The next morning , a nice young guy was at the reception and that was a totally different experience. We could have our breakfast outside and he even insisted that he bring it himself there. So, we had a great meal at another place. The choice of restaurants was not large due to corona but there are other places to have dinner.

Great location just a short walk from the historical part of town. Rooms are good size, and beds are comfortable. Breakfast is buffet style but a little limited in variety. Staff is generally helpful.
