I stayed on the first floor. Below the hotel is the Rex Jazz bar and restaurant. At night, when a jazz band played, it was loud enough through the floor, that you could not sleep. I don’t mind going to bed late but this would certainly be an issue for someone who had to leave early the next day. The room was small but quaint. I had a private bathroom and I thought that while small and tight, it was sufficient for me traveling alone. Overall, I enjoyed my stay.

Just what we needed
Got exactly what i was expecting! We just needed somewhere safe and clean to sleep for a few nights. Not a roomy hotel or anything fancy but adequately priced for what you get.

Oliver at the front desk was a joy to deal with...very helpful and informative. We enjoyed a beautiful lunch while listening to a lovely set of jazz. I would come back and stay here again in a heartbeat. All the staff are very friendly and helpful and the rooms are clean and comfortable.

The room was extremely tiny, but I won't complain. What was an issue was that the standing bath didn't drain water so I had ankle deep water while having bath and had to wash it after I come out. The cooling and Heating was messed up too.
