Not worth the price and hassle getting there
Pros:

Location, but almost impossible to find by car. Took 2 hours of driving around to find it.

Cons:

Bathroom, barely even call it that, the towels were like bed sheets, three stories of stairs to climb. £60 a night and breakfast was not included, but they woke us up every morning at 6ish preparing it for others right outside our door. Very noisy.

Pros:

Hôtel un peu désuet, au décor baroque, personnel aimable, literie correcte.

Cons:

A savoir, l'hôtel est au 2e étage, escalier un peu raide, pas d'ascenseur. Petit déjeuner dans le couloir, devant les chambres. Chambres donnant sur deux rues très bruyantes, bon double vitrage, ventilateur pour l'été. Salle de bain très petite : douche devant le lavabo, à côté des WC très proche !

Pros:

Camera molto pulita. Posizione perfetta. La colazione buona con brioche,pane,marmellate,bevanda calda e spremuta. I gestori sono molto alla mano Ci tornerei

Cons:

Si trova al secondo piano di un palazzo antico. Noi non abbiamo avuto problemi ma è da considerare se ci sono persone anziane. Il bagno è molto piccolo. Comunque la qualità in base al prezzo basso è ottima
