"Our family of 7 loved this hotel. Quaint, well located and charming. It would have been really nice if there was an elevator for those who were staying on 3rd floor but that is probably too much to expect from a building that is so old. The canal location within walking distance of the Christmas market, museums, restaurants, etc. was truly fantastic. "
