Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The bed was incredibly comfy, and the room was on the ground floor. The service was top-notch, but the dining experience with the risotto was just average. The location was superb with everything at a short walking distance, and the facilities were great.
I truly enjoyed my stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, right in the center of town with everything at a short walking distance. The rooms were cozy and had nice beds, but I wish they had more room amenities. The service was top-notch, and the dining experience with classic American dishes was delightful. However, the pricing seemed a bit high for what was offered.
The hotel is in a charming little square in the old town, near some of the best eating places, offering a cozy and comfortable stay experience. The service is exceptional but the dining options might be limited.
