How we score

Near the sights: how close the nearest listed sight is, and how many are within 1 km. Rooms: the room sizes we show and how many types there are. Facilities: how many kinds the hotel lists (dining, pool or spa, fitness, front desk services, comfort and access). Wellness: spa, hammam, sauna, steam room, pools, gym and massage.

A score is left out when the hotel’s facts are too few to judge it.

From a 12 m² single to a 45 m² quadruple, Economy rooms on the ground floor

The smallest rooms, the Standard Single and the Economy Double, are both 12 m². The Standard Double or Twin at 15 m² adds a city view and room for a third guest. Both the Economy Double and the Economy Quadruple are on the ground floor, which may suit anyone who prefers to avoid stairs.

A solo traveller has the Standard Single with its city view. A couple fits the Standard Double or Twin, which sleeps up to 3 if a third bed is used. The Economy Quadruple's bed configuration suits a small group, though no fixed guest count is stated beyond what the beds accommodate.

No pool, no spa, no beach: a small independent hotel for short city stays

The hotel's facilities do not include a pool, a spa or any beach access. It is a small independent property built for short city stays rather than resort-style holidays. Breakfast and WiFi are included in the stay. The front desk operates around the clock, and staff can assist with tours and tickets. The property is smoke-free throughout.

The hotel is wheelchair accessible, has an elevator and offers assistive listening devices. Bicycle rentals and ecotours are nearby.

Check-in from 14:00, check-out by 11:30, no children, no pets

Check-in begins at 14:00 and check-out is by 11:30. Children are not allowed at the hotel. Pets are not allowed. There is no accessible airport shuttle, so travellers with mobility needs who require accessible airport transfer should arrange one independently.

Suits solo travellers and couples; not families

With children not permitted, the hotel does not suit families. It works for a solo traveller or a couple who want a simple, compact room with breakfast included and major landmarks within 0.7 km, in a straight line. The ground-floor Economy rooms may suit those who prefer not to use the elevator.

The hotel is independent, not part of a chain, and its scale reflects that: it is a place to sleep well and step out, not a destination in itself. Pet owners will also need to look elsewhere.
