Decent Hotel in Historical Location

wide selection breakfast options historic location cool location several shops many shops poor ventilation dark room ineffective air warm air
The location within the palace was certainly a highlight. I found several shops and eateries nearby which was very convenient. The breakfast offered a wide selection, including croissants, fruit, cheese, and meats. Hot options were also available.
I stayed in the annexe. It lacked the character of the main building. The room felt dark and ventilation was poor. I found that the air conditioning did not work effectively. It blew out warm air only.

helpful staff klapa group singing good breakfast small bed bizarre toilet difficult use
The staff was so helpful. i appreciated that the location was directly next to the vestibul. I could hear a klapa group sing throughout the day. breakfast was also good!
The beds felt too small. the toilet design seemed bizarre, almost backward! this made using the toilet somewhat difficult. It couldn't be avoided.
