Great location. Great service. The staff were very helpful. The room was too warm therefore the need to sleep with the window open and couldn't sleep because of parties at bars outside. The room was somehow very dusty. But other than that it is a really great place.

A lovely hotel in a great location

A great hotel with professional and friendly staff. We parked close by 30€ per night. Very comfortable beds and high level of cleanliness. They upgraded us, had a bottle of wine left in our room and a complementary glass of wine on arrival which was lovely. We would highly recommend.

Loved the staff, very quiet. Directions if you have a car are very difficult as we’re in the old city and you have to drive on a cobblestone path that says pedestrians only. But there’s an exception for this hotel. Kept feeling like I was going to get in trouble. Íker stayed on the phone with me until I arrived. Couldn’t ask for better service!!
