Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was absolutely wonderful! The rooms were spacious, spotless, and very comfortable, overlooking the courtyard. The service provided by the staff was top-notch and they even helped me with a mini-crisis. The location was good for exploring the area, not too far from the city center. The dining experience was delightful, with a wide range of choices. A truly great value for money!
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although spacious and comfortable with a large balcony, were in need of modernization. Despite getting a 40% discount, the value for money didn't quite meet my expectations. On the bright side, the view was lovely, and the bathroom felt luxurious.
The hotel offers spacious and air-conditioned rooms that are relatively large and quiet. While the great balcony is a plus, the lack of chairs and a table takes away from fully enjoying the outdoor space. However, the thin walls make it challenging to escape sounds from neighboring apartments and activities within the hotel.
I had a comfortable stay at the hotel with clean rooms and a friendly staff, though the dining experience could be improved with more options. The location was convenient for exploring, and the facilities were well-maintained.
The hotel is conveniently located near the historical center and a street full of restaurants. The rooms offer a lovely view, are adequately-sized, clean, and provide air conditioning. The bed was very comfortable, ensuring a peaceful rest. Although the service was disinterested and not very friendly, the overall stay was clean and comfortable with reasonable pricing. The location is ideal for exploring the old city, and the dining experience was excellent with a delicious local cake for breakfast.
My stay at the hotel was amazing. The rooms were spacious with a great balcony overlooking the street below, and I loved that check-out was at 7.30 pm instead of the usual 10 am. The service was top-notch, with staff going out of their way to help, although a minor incident was a bit off-putting. The location was ideal, close to the tourist zones and amenities, though the neighborhood felt a bit outdated. Dining was a delightful experience with a lovely courtyard setting and a good variety of food. Overall, a wonderful stay with some minor hiccups.
