    the room and balcony were nice; the owner was very friendly and apologetic when a very rowdy group kept us up at night

    Fantastic food and lovely staff. It's a little bit run-down but that does not bother me. For the price the food is exceptionally good: home cooking for dinner and an ample continental breakfast. Bravo!
