The hotel is situated up a hill in a small alley, which didn't bother us but could be a challenge for some. It's close to the city center, making it convenient for exploring. The rooms were cozy with heating, but the location may not be ideal for everyone.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, enjoying the beautiful views from the room and the warm service from the staff. However, the location up a hill might not suit everyone, and access by car is a bit tricky. The dining experience with freshly cooked omelettes was a highlight, but the alleyway setting might not be ideal for some.
