building itself was very old and that create some minor issues, e.g. main door stairs were a bit worned out etc. However, nice small hotel + location was great - very easy to access downtown + easy to get out from the town (buy car). Breakfast Ok, also for food restriction one's. No complains for room service/cleaning

Pleasant and quiet stay in a comfortable room
Very quiet and peaceful place. Well appointed room. Breakfast verged on a simpler buffet type. Building is on the hill top and in the 1700s or 1800s served as Gotlandâs archive. Lovely view of harbour from our bedroom. Well located just a 10-minute walk into the heart of Visby.

We thoroughly enjoyed this little manor house. Loved the floor heating in the bathroom and the beautiful ancient windows. Absolute best was their breakfast, by far the BEST breakfast I ever had at any hotel around the world.
The only thing that was a bit unusual, we booked the deluxe room and were expecting a sitting area, but only got one chair and a stool at a tiny desk. It did not look like the picture n the internet. It only bugged me on the one day we had rain and hung out in the room for a bit.
Walkable to town without being in the midst of party area at night. Quiet enough to sleep with the windows open.
Loved this experience.

Allt var suverÀnt, det enda negativa var att man inte kunde öppna fönstret pÄ toaletten för att fÄ drag genom lÀgenheten dÄ det blev vÀldigt fuktigt pÄ toaletten efter dusch. Frukosten, service och hotellrummet var kanon.
