Insgesamt überwiegt das positive, aber wie immer gibt es verbesserungspotenzial…
Pros:

Top ist die Lage und der Service! Ein altes Haus mit Charme
Und das Frühstück ist super!!

Cons:

Leider ist unter den Zimmern, die nach hinten liegen, eine sehr laute Disco…
Die Toilette in unserem Zimmer war so eng in die Ecke gebaut, dass sie für Menschen >175cm extrem unbequem war

Un’esperienza raffinata e piacevole
Pros:

Ho soggiornato in questo hotel per partecipare a un evento e sono rimasta pienamente soddisfatta. La posizione centrale è perfetta, gli ambienti sono eleganti e raffinati e la camera era confortevole e impeccabilmente pulita. Il personale si è dimostrato sempre cortese e professionale. Un soggiorno davvero piacevole: consiglio vivamente questa struttura e ci tornerò con piacere.
