Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall, with comfortable rooms and excellent shower facilities. However, there were some issues with the power points in the room and the temperamental kettle. The location was very convenient for exploring the city on foot, but parking could be a challenge. The dining experience was versatile, though the coffee machine was broken. The staff, especially one of the younger lady members, were kind but seemed a bit overwhelmed with service demands.
The hotel is tucked away in a little square with a fountain in the old town, surrounded by restaurants that surprisingly don't disturb your peace at night. The rooms were immaculate, and the breakfast was very good. Although the room was clean, it felt a bit small, just slightly bigger than the 'charm room'.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and had an excellent double bed, making my sleep very comfortable. The shower and bathroom supplies were top-notch, elevating the overall experience. However, the rooms were not exactly as nice as pictured, but still very enjoyable.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean, spacious, and beautifully designed with lovely decor. The service was top-notch, with helpful and nice staff responding immediately to any requests. The location was great, right in the heart of the city, though a tad complicated to find initially. The dining experience had some ups and downs but overall provided a good variety of options. The facilities were fantastic, enhancing my overall experience.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The location is ideal, right in the vibrant heart of the city, but the noise from the lively square below can be disturbing at night. The room, although facing a bustling square with many restaurants, felt a bit exposed due to the overlooking courtyard windows.
The hotel's rooms were smaller than expected and lacked comfort based on the photos. However, the service was friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect for easy access to restaurants and attractions, and the dining options were good. The facilities were decent, though some aspects were a bit pricey.
