A great buy for a solo traveler.
Pros:

A great deal. Location a block from major subway line and a 10 minute walk to museum area. I had a small single room which was clean and had an en suite bathroom for about $100 less per night than other hotels. The area felt very safe.

Great room in a beautiful family run hotel.
Pros:

Very clean and the property looked sparkly and updated. It was a little outside of the tourist area on a very quiet street. We really liked the neighborhood. Very close to the Metro when we needed to get places fast. Nice owners and staff who were very friendly and helpful

Cons:

Everything was great.

Pros:

Belvárosban, de csendes helyen.
Közel a metróallomás minden nevezetesség gyorsan elérhető.
Reggeli nincs a szálláson, de vannak jó reggelizőhelyek a közelben.
Szívből ajánlom!

Cons:

As camas eram 2 de solteiro unidas, não foi desconfortável, mas se fosse 1 cama de casal seria melhor.

Lovely little hotel in a great location
Pros:

Location. Size of room. Comfort. Polite staff. Decor

Cons:

A small negative, but a mirror on the dressing table or wall above it would have been great so I could sit to do hair and makeup. There's a mirror in the bathroom and one inside wardrobe door, but just for comfort it would have been nice to have one on the dresser

Pros:

Friendly, helpful staff.
Located in a quiet street, a very short walk to the tram or metro station. There's also a nearby supermarket.
The main sights to see are all within a 5-25 minute walk.
The room was comfortable and clean.
I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Cons:

Nothing.
