Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was great with lively surroundings and plenty of dining options nearby. The rooms, although facing a noisy square, were equipped with a small balcony. The service was a bit of a hit or miss, with some friendly and helpful staff but also encountered some issues with arrogance. The dining was decent but lacked variety for the price, and the facilities were satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, though not the most modern, were suitable and decently clean for the price. The location was convenient with good dining options nearby, but not the best for a calm retreat. The service was responsive and helpful, offering me unexpectedly free breakfast. However, the dining experience was only average and somewhat disappointing.
