The building is magnificent. The room was a good size. The staff were so attentive and kind. The breakfast was just perfect.

Our room was right on the street and was very noisy most of the time but earplugs fixed the issue!

Beautiful hotel, noisy street
Pros:

Staff was really friendly and accomodating, the house is charming

Cons:

We had to switch to a smaller room as the noise from honking cars woke us before 5 in our first room, but the second room wasn’t much better…

Pros:

El hotel es muy bonito, en una villa antigua. La posición está súper bien, a 10 minutos andando del centro. Los recepcionistas son super amables, fueron super disponibles con nosotros. Son muy detallistas. El desayuno estuvo súper bien, incluso nos lo prepararon para llevar un día que teníamos que salir temprano. Las camas comodísimas, tanto los colchones como los cojines.

Cons:

Las ventanas no son herméticas, por lo tanto hay tanto ruido de los coches que pasan fuera y que van pitando todo el rato, que es como si la ventana estuviera abierta. Hay que ponerse tapones, si no es imposible dormir. También las cortinas son muy claritas, en cuanto sale el sol, la habitación está completamente iluminada. La ducha está regular, ya que echa el agua hirviendo, o congelada, no se puede regular.
