An excellent breakfast buffet. One of the best I've ever had. Wonderful location, quiet, but almost in the middle of everything.

It is in the old town, walking distance to all the sights, yet it is very quiet and cozy.

The location is great, very central and yet very quiet. The room was clean and comfortable.
Breakfast could have benefitted from having a bit more variety, in particular pastries.

It was very hot in the room. It was 90(F) and too hot to sleep. My room is #33. Three windows are facing west. The AC is too small to cool down the room. Talked to the hotel manager and showed him the temperature 88(F). He said it was normal temperature to all rooms.
Room is too hot to sleep. The elevator can’t get up to my room. I have to carry my heavy suitcase for ten steps.

The location was perfect an the hotel was beautiful. Rooms were large, shower was hot and pressure excellent., very clean! Staff was very nice.
I don't normally check out physically from a room but when I left I was told I didnt pay.. It was reserved with my card but they don't automatically charge it. It was a little bit confusing. and a little bit of a language issue. but all was handled and it didn't make my rating go down. It was just a little confusing at the end.

Very oldschool-smalltown experience, for exemple no AC. But also big rooms and an excellente breakfast with scrambled eggs made à la minute. Very silent.
