This hotel is centrally located and convenient to see all of the sites. Unfortunately, the dishwasher was broken and couldn't be used. Also, we only had views of other buildings from our apartment. Additionally, we stayed for five nights, and when we requested another bottle of water, we were told we'd have to pay 4 Euros. That was terribly disappointing.

The Hotel has no parking and doesn't provide a good option for the elderly or for people with a walking difficulty to get to it. Being positioned in the center (which was why we chose the place in the first place), in a ,very, restricted traffic area the hotel failed to offer some kind of help or transfer to the parking lot available in the area (the parking lot outside the restricted traffic zone). The result was an 82 year old lady ( my mom and I) dragging our luggage in the streets for about 800 meters. It may not seem a lot but I guess at a certain age you feel distance in a different way. Even if the stuff would have offered us someone to carry the luggage or the option of a taxi to and from the parking it would have been ok but as it was - I don't think I can whole heartedly recommend this hotel.

Instead of 4 stars hotel you will get simple appar
The main surprise was to discover that instead of the room in the hotel you are getting very poor maintained dirty appartments not even close to 4 stars hotel 200 meters away from the hotel with terrible noise all around 24 hours in the streets beneath. Please avoid this hotel . No parking , plastic glasses in the bathroom very cheap shampoo, no hotel flip-flops at all . Nothing is even close to 4 stars. Horrible price- benefit. Maybe the worse i ever met. And i travel a lot

We booked this because of the parking advertised. It is just a garage that you have to walk to and pay for separately. Also our room was very loud from both street noise and interior noise, you could hear people getting home until 3 am. Street lights shined in and there are no blackout curtains

The pictures don’t reflect the room and one of the reasons why we booked this hotel was the parking. The parking is not at the property. The bathroom was small and while the sheets were clean, the duvet would still pop out. The obviously don’t wash the duvet. Overall, not worth the price and definitely not somewhere I’d recommend. There are better places with the same price at better locations.

The location is excellent, walkable to the Central train terminal. The room we booked was a junior sukte with Olive Grove view, whilst the room was ok the definition of a Junior suite is used very literally, the room was sligjtly L shaped leading from front door to the bed, there was no seperate seating area instead a exposed cupboard. Difficult to view as jujior suite. The view of the olive grove was from the front door which exposed everything in the room as it was Glass windowed door so no real privacy. The only other window was onto a wall. The most annoying thing was the wash basins, it had a his and hers round shallow wash basins with the central taps which was fixed and prutruded past the centre which made washing very difficult without spraying water all around the basin and over the floor as you had to scoop the water out past the central tap to then splash your face. This sounds worse than it was, if it wasn't for the very central location making up for these factors I would probably have been aggrieved at the room being sold as a "Junior Suite"

Overall, excellent. Location convenient to train station and historic city center. Great breakfast, nice staff. Room was small, but did the trick. We had one of the rooms tucked behind the elevator which was a challenge with our luggage. This lead to slightly lower rating on facilities.
