I appreciate the little touches, like Smeg appliances in the rooms; however, some past visitors have experienced some maintenance issues, which is a point to consider.

high cost glass wall
The breakfast cost seemed quite high. it was priced at 18 euros (i remember it precisely) for what was offered. also, the bathroom had a glass wall. A curtain provided privacy, but it felt insufficient to me.

Acceptable location, some issues

high temperature portable safe
The hotel location was quite central, useful for getting around.
The air conditioning was centralized with a minimum temperature set at 19 degrees, a bit too warm for sleep. The room safe wasn't bolted down. It felt pointless. The bar staff seemed preoccupied..

Stylish Stay in a Prime Spot

prime location decorated room helpful staff
The hotel's location proved supremely convenient (close to many key attractions). My room was beautifully decorated. I noticed excellent use of space. Staff members were friendly and helpful, especially when i asked about local spots.
My room, while lovely, was very small. There wasn't much space to move around.

a decent stay

great amenities central location uninterested staff slow service
the location was GREAT. you are close to transport, and i could walk to most attractions. the rooms had great amenities, i noticed that.
the staff were VERY uninterested. they were more interested in their mobile phones than helping customers. getting a coffee in the bar was too much, honestly.
