This is a humble little place above a bar/restaurant. The bed was really nice, and the bathroom was squeaky clean, with good water pressure in the shower. There was a nice radiator that worked well and a shelf above it, that made it easy to dry things in the rainy season.
That said, it is above a bar. So on Fri and Sat you aren't going to get to bed before 2 AM unless you have serious ear protection. There are only six rooms, but the walls are extremely thin, so expect to also hear your neighbor's TV. If that sort of thing doesn't bother you though, it's a good place for the money. Definitely not a place for kids, though. The other drawback I can see is that your room key doesn't work on the side door, so you have to go through the bar/restaurant every time you arrive, which is a little awkward. They will keep your bags behind the bar counter in the morning, but make sure they're actually open that morning!
That said, it was perfectly safe and the staff at the bar were nice. They spoke English well enough to get you along. There's a second room to the restaurant where you can sit on couches around a fireplace, that's typically quiet and cosy. The location is great too, right on the edge of the old town center, at the bottom of the hill.
