I booked the Leviathan Hotel because of its historic value and we enjoyed looking around the hotel. We enjoyed eating in the hotel, and it was very close to the railroad station which we walked around in the evening.

I was on a budget and needed somewhere to sleep for the night. This place has an olde world charm and frankly, I was surprised. So close to the central city, free parking and down to earth service. If your looking for marble basins and a bedit look elsewhere. This place suited me well. I will definitely stay here again.

It is a beautiful building and the room I was in was perfect. Looking out of our window into the courtyard makes it look like the place is run down. I know the upkeep is good. Just difficult to understand why it looks this way.
