The hotel and staff were excellent. The hotel is very near the train station and all the main items are within walking distance.

Jesse, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

The property was quite basic but the staff were helpful and efficient. Although everything was within easy walking distance which was great, pick pockets were rife. One of us had our bag stolen outside the hotel. As we were on our way to the airport, this was a nightmare!
Clare, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice and very central located hotel. The room for 1 Person was small but nice. I stayed just one night but I would book this hotel again next time.
Mario Junior, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

"I chose this hotel for its proximity to the train station and city center, and it proved to be an excellent decision." FYI The hotel room I was in, has the tiniest shower space I've ever experienced.
Christian, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Room is nice and clean, comfortable bed,, excellent areas, close to everything , the only thing is the building still has some under renovation and the antique closet is nice but was a little dusty inside
Kim, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a fantastic view out of are 4th floor window of the Basilica of San Lorenzo, also from the roof terrace, magnificent. I would highly recommend this hotel 10/10
Ronald, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Room did not have much of a view in the standard double, and couldn’t get a upgrade do to how busy it was being Easter but that would be the only downside of it all. loved the view and drinks from the bar on top of the hotel. Breakfast in the hotel was great, and hotel is located in great location close to train station and all amenities! Definitely would go back

Kattia, 4-night trip

6/10 Okay

Tiniest shower I ever had! I’m a slim person and I couldn’t even turn around, every time when I move the faucet hit my back! With the money I paid this is totally not worth it! Staff were nice, location very good, easy walk to all the places but that’s it.
jenny, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff was awesome and the area fantastic. The rooftop view amazing. I would caution though to make sure there are no stairs to your room once you get out of the elevator. We ended up with 17 stairs to get to our room. My bad as I should have asked or made it known we needed accessibility. Lesson learned. Overall we did okay.
Brenda, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Overall, this hotel was excellent. The room was unique and comfortable. We enjoyed watching the sun set from the rooftop, a special amenity. Unfortunately, responsiveness from the staff was not quite as strong. We called both prior and after our stay to address some questions, and were told to email to receive a very fast reply. We emailed via Expedia and directly, several times, but never received a reply in any case. Still a great hotel, but don’t count on assistance if you need help when you are not on the premises.
Barbara, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

The only positive to say about this hitel is the proximity to the train station. They always try to give you the worst room in the hotel. When they change it us like we say in french They offer you to choose between LA PESTE and the CHOLERA
