Nicole from Slovakia
Pension is in very good location, situated on quite street but still close to the centre. Walking distance to city centre is 10 minutes.
Rooms are small but comfy and with everything you need for a comfort stay. The owner is very nice, the restaurant downstairs is perfect if you want some snack or something to drink.
