We stayed here in Dec during Christmas market. It is an older hotel, but it is expected given the location in a medieval town. It is central to almost everything. The famous Plolein corner is right outside the hotel. Breakfast is good. Internet connection is also good. The slight draw back is the 14 min walk back to the train station, which is slightly uphill.
