Pros:

Really charming. Perfect location, breakfast fresh and welcome.

Cons:

Nothing not to like. We wanted to be on the beautiful top floor but best to mention if stone spiral stairs, just one storey, are an issue.

Very convenient located hotel that is good value for the money.
Pros:

Breakfast was good and quite filling. The hotel was in a great location for walking to many attractions and restaurants.

Cons:

The rooms are air conditioned, but that air-conditioning is regulated so that it goes off at night making for a very hot room. Ask at the front desk to have the a/c run thru the night.

Pros:

Struttura comoda, con tutto ciò che serve. La cura del dettaglio negli accessori sia in bagno sia in camera non è scontata di questi tempi. E qui c'era tutto quello che serve per il soggiorno. Molto gradito. La camera spaziosa, accogliente e il letto molto comodo. Ho dormito beatamente. La posizione permette anche di non sentire rumori dalle strade principali pur essendo molto vicine.

Cons:

Non ho trovato nulla che non mi sia piaciuto in questa struttura.
