Perfect. We highly reommend this apartment.
Pros:

The space is beautiful and the location is perfect on a wonderful plaza in Cadiz. The check in process was easy and the communication with the owner was perfect. We stayed here with our grandson and we enjoyed the space tremendously. The apartment felt like home and was beautifully appointed. The building the apartment is in is the perfect blend of charm with modern touches. We will absolutely stay here again when we return to Cadiz.

Cons:

We loved everything about this property.

Pros:

The property was vey unusual and blended old with new.

Cons:

The room was very small and the lighting was very bright with only ceiling lights. This made the room much too bright. Dimmer switches would help.

Amazing hotel that combines an ancient building with modern comfort right in the city center
Pros:

Incredibly nice location in the Gothic District .. The hotel is a hidden gem, you won´t see the entrance right away until you stand right in front. They did an amazing job embedding this modern hotel into an ancient building; amazing staff , super helpful. This is not a party hotel, this is a spot to slow down and relax

Cons:

really nothing to improve.. if you want to get an exceptional hotel, you have to accept the exceptional prices

Pros:

The staff is helpful and friendly. The lobby is beautiful.

Cons:

Not so spacious 'family suite' and does not feel as luxurious as the photos suggest. It felt very expensive overall for the quality and space available.

Goede locatie om maximaal van Barcelona te genieten.
Pros:

Uitstekende locatie midden in de oude historische stad en toch bijzonder rustig door de goed geïsoleerde ramen. Een aangenaam verblijf met goede bedden. Dichtbij de restaurants, dichtbij het strand, alles binnen handbereik en goed te bewandelen.

Cons:

Niets.

Pros:

Wystrój. Pokój przyjemnie zaprojektowany, hol piękny. Praktycznym rozwiązaniem jest mozlwiość rezerwacji siłowni i sauny. to zapewniało komfort

Cons:

Niestety poczułam się jak gość drugiej kategorii. Nie było wody w pokoju i otrzymałam informację, że skoro zarezerwowałam pobyt przez booking to mi się woda nie należy. Drobiazg? No niestety nie. Hotel nie należy do najtańszych, więc takie elementy mają znaczenie. Na siłowni brak mozwliosci zdezynfekowania sprzętu przed i po użyciu, brak pojemnika z wodą

Exceptional property, five star boutique hotel in the charming gothic quarter!
Pros:

The staff were exceptionally pleasant, professional, and helpful in every way and spoke perfectly fluent English with great recommendations. The location in the Gothic Quarter is super convenient, with many small shops and top rated restaurants located very close in the safe neighborhood, and the hotel doors remained secure 24/7 with keycard access after hours and round-the-clock staff. The rooms were spotlessly clean, amenities updated, and design was authentic to the online photos. The rooftop pool was a vip secluded hang out spot which is perfect for small groups or couples. Absolutely worth the money for this great property!

Cons:

Impossible to control, but there was loud partying in the street at all hours, which happens all over the city.

Pros:

Çocuklar ile iki aile konakladık, eskişehirde tam turistik bölgede hotel. Dışarı çıkınca istediginiz yemek secenekleri çok yakin mesafede, metro durağına yürüme mesafesi kısa. İstediginiz yere metro ile gitmek çok kolay ve keyifli. Biz son gün aldik hoteli biraz pahali, daha uygun yerler var fakat lokasyonlarinda yürüme mesafesinde gezilecek yer yok, metro veya taksi yapılması gerek, genel olarak hotelden çok memnun kaldık tavsiye ederim.

Cons:

Hotel bir oda için 400 euro depozito aldi, odada birşeylere zarar verme durumuna karşiymiş, yada hırsızlık, bir hafta sonra idade olacakmış, booking de açıklamada tam net birşey yazmıyor, sanirim isteyebilir yazıyordu, yada ben dikkat etmedim. Bu detaya dikkat ederek odayı alin derim, yada öncesinde hotele msj atıp sorun. Can sıkıcı bir durum
