Nice hotel. Our room was comfortable but small although we had a very spacious terrace so this offset the room size. The room had everything necessary including a nice bathroom, comfortable bed and adequate storage space.

10/10 Exceptional

A wonderful stay! This hotel was so beautiful and serene, especially when you enter from the busy, loud street. The courtyard was an oasis. The staff was helpful and efficient. The only criticism we had about our stay concerned the windows on the bathroom doors. For some reason, an clear border was left around the frosted glass, so there was no real privacy in the bathrooms - an awkward situation for siblings.
