The hotel is in the city centre. We received a warm welcome and we stayed in Room 1 which is at the top of the stairs on the first floor. This meant that we heard all those using the stairs.

We discovered this hotel quite by accident; the hotel isn't much to look at but it is in the centre of town, close to secure indoor parking garage that lets you park overnight for about 7 Euros.
