Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, while a little small and stuffy for my liking, had a nice touch with a door leading out to a small shared courtyard where I could relax with a glass of wine. The staff did their best to eliminate any unpleasant smells, which was appreciated.
Staying in this hotel was a mixed experience. The location within the walled town was convenient, but the noise from street cleaning vans throughout the night was disruptive. The rooms were basic, lacking storage space and with weak air conditioning, yet clean and presentable. Service was generally helpful and friendly, though some staff members were a bit stern. The dining options were good, but at times overshadowed by fellow guests. Facilities were adequate but nothing outstanding.
