Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is tucked in a narrow alley, but it's super close to all the historic sites and tourist attractions. The rooms are spacious with excellent modern facilities, but the shower is a bit small. The service is top-notch with efficient housekeeping. The dining options offer a variety of fresh Italian dishes served beautifully by the wonderful Cristina, although it's a downside that a barbecue wasn't available. Overall, it's a great value for money stay!
This hotel is a true gem with its friendly staff and convenient location close to all the sights. The cozy rooms are perfect for those with big bags, but the narrow alleyway can be a bit tricky to navigate.
This hotel really surprised me with its excellent modern facilities and the convenience of having enough space for big bags in the room. The shower was wonderful, and the queen bed provided a cozy stay. On the downside, the price could be a bit high for some travelers, but it's definitely worth it for the quality you receive.
