The host was very kind. The location is old, and the elevator is small/very old. The host had to help me with it. Manual keys, there's a trick to using them. Room was comfortable, no luggage rack or place to store things. Beautiful marble in the bathroom. Very clean.

La limpieza y el mobiliario excelentes. Nos quedamos en la habitación Florencia. Lo único malo fue que la habitación contaba con muy poca luz natural y el último día tuvieron problemas con la energía eléctrica por lo que tuvimos que empacar a la luz de nuestros celulares. La ubicación es excelente ya que está cerca de la estación de tren!
