The property is designed for those seeking a stay with character, in an authentic setting just steps from the railway station and the city’s main points of interest.

The rooms, almost all equipped with a private balcony, offer a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with shower, hairdryer and toiletries; some feature views of the mountains or the historic center.
