wonderful stay in a historic setting

amazing architecture fascinating history peaceful atmosphere easy access

The building had amazing architecture and history. i found it very peaceful and quiet, which i really appreciate. the breakfast was also excellent (the fresh pastries were my favorite!). i was grateful for the easy car lift access to the parking. It worked without issues.

The bar wasn't open for food until quite late. I would have liked it to open earlier.

Mixed Feelings About This Stay

tight car lift cold room

The restored historic building was quite beautiful.

The parking situation was problematic. Driving into a car lift to reach the underground parking was very tight. I also found the room cold. It wasn't comfortable at all.
