Central old-town location, excellent modern rooms at reasonable prices, and friendly guesthouse feel – what more could you want? The only drawback is the single rooms can be a little poky. There's a small but pretty garden, and local artefacts inhabit the public areas. Ask for a room with balcony. A great deal all round.
