Pros:

Very well located, comfortable bed, nice decoration. Bathtub is a very nice-to-have point. The breakfast is simple but fulfilling. Reasonable price-value.

Cons:

The room did not corresponded with pictures, it was smaller, darker, with no views.
Floor was a bit dirty all the days (since the first time we arrived, and still every day after requesting cleaning).

Good position, but that’s it
Pros:

The location was optimal: one minute from the metro with everything in the street. Plus it is at walking distance from the main palaces.

Cons:

The room was quite old, very small window with no possibility to open it (it was giving on another building one metre far).
Cleaning needs to be asked one day in advance; very uncomfortable.
Luggage storage was left outside of the hotel… not very safe.
