The location was fantastic. I could rest in the middle of the day AND visit all the sights. It’s near the train station and lots of restaurants. The staff were very helpful and friendly. As a solo traveler I felt safe. The room, though small was well designed, clean and a great bed. The best surprise was an excellent breakfast, of scrambled eggs, Italian pastries, fresh coffee and juices. The breakfast area was very nice to sit and enjoy.

Overall this hotel was ok. Pros: Not too far from the train station or trolley, good restaurants around, place seemed clean, and the staff was nice. Cons: The downstairs bathrooms were out of toilet paper when we arrived, the room was very minimal - I mean not even any end tables, bathroom was tiny.
