    Good location but not recommended with luggages”

    Firstly , 8 min walk from station . Steep climb via advocate close ( devil advocate ) 100 steps climb . Then 200 mtr walk & door 3 blue color right at the jolly judge bar . Self check in. Please download the pdf for procedure . There will be password to open the entrance door & key case box password to retrieve the key. Don’t carry luggage, since it’s steep spiral stair & need to climb a lot. Rest all good. Good for young & drink lovers . Not recommended for family or those who need sound sleep. Build in timber . & 1000 yrs old. Every step sound while walking

    NO BETTER LOCATION”

    This is located in a historical building, constructed in 1680 with modern gadgets enabling a blend of ancient and modern for a classic experience. Centrally located for almost anything one can think of.
