My stay was lovely overall, with a cozy atmosphere and well-maintained rooms that made for a comfortable experience. The hotel's location is incredibly convenient, as it's just a short walk to the town center, allowing easy access to the charming sights of Banska Stiavnica. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired; while the breakfast was decent, the service was notably lacking and some of the food was served cold. Additionally, noise issues at night made it hard to get a good sleep, which was disappointing.
