Steps from the major sights but cool and quiet
Pros:

Great location and room. Though the rooftop restaurant was not in use during our stay excellent breakfast was served on the ground floor. Lovely staff who were very helpful. We had a lovely shady balcony to our room and though it was a busy pedestrian street very little noise penetrated

Cons:

Shame not to have had use of the rooftop facilities but things have to be maintained
