"Unforgettable"

8.0

Unique experience of living in a nun’s cell :) Staff were extraordinarily friendly. Fascinating location. Walking distance to the university and allows you to explore the quieter side of the city centre and the excellent local cafes.

Understandably, sound proof was not part of the plan when the building was raised in the 19th century. Better bring/provide a pair of earplugs.

"Monk lifestyle :)"

6.0

The location is nice, it is very close to the city center.

The idea of ​​staying in an old monastery is beautiful. But you should still work a little, at least on the basic investment in painting. The room seems very dilapidated. And for the price of staying in a room that doesn't even have a bathroom, you expect at least a minimum of cleanliness. Everything is quite noisy, the floor is made of wood, so when someone walks in the room above you, you can hear everything, it's the same with the front door, you can hear everything that happens in the hallway.
