Room types

There are five categories: a Budget Single Room, several Budget Double Rooms and Deluxe or Superior options, accommodating one or two people. Room sizes range from 10 to 17 m². The 10 m² Budget Double Room is the most compact; the Superior measures 17 m², while the Deluxe measures 15 m². This lets you choose between a single room and rooms designed for two.

A private bathroom, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV are among the shared amenities. Four of the five rooms have a balcony and city views or views of a local landmark; the Budget Single Room, on the other hand, overlooks an interior courtyard. Rooms also have a kettle or coffee maker and a shower, and some categories include a sofa or desk. Toiletries, towels and a hairdryer complete the listed room amenities.
