“The guesthouse sits quietly on the river, a short walk from restaurants and the train station, making it ideal for exploring; the communal area is perfect for enjoying the peaceful river view. Rooms are comfortable and clean, and while a fridge would be a plus, the value is undeniable. It's a solid choice for a relaxed stay.”
