The owner of this hotel showed us to our room as we booked our room last min and we checked in after the hours. She was super friendly and helpful!
The room and bathroom are spotless!
I was fascinated by the collectables and antiques displayed in the hotel - it’s totally like a museum which is amazing!
Staff are friendly :)
We enjoyed our stay at Poshtel very much!
