Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was clean and comfortable, and the staff were lovely and helpful, but there were minor issues in the room that could be easily fixed. The location was excellent for exploring the historic town but had some cleanliness issues. The dining was good and value for money, though some areas were overpriced.
The hotel has lovely rooms with friendly and polite staff. The car parking is amazing for the area, and there's a nice courtyard and a good breakfast. The rooms were bigger than expected, with a little kitchenette area and comfy armchairs, overlooking the inner courtyard.
The hotel offered a nice accommodation for 3 persons, lacking air conditioning which could be uncomfortable in the summer. The room had a basic feel but showed efforts towards improvement, though a complete refurbishment was still needed. The service was average, with some room for improvement in attentiveness and welcoming. On the bright side, the location was outstanding, right in the old town, offering a cozy ambiance in the city center. Dining experience was mediocre, not up to the expected standard for a 5-star hotel, with overpriced options.
