Extremely clean and cozy! Loved our stay. Room is very small but that was expected. Bathroom and bedroom were clean and comfortable. The separate kitchen room has all the needed amenities, and we loved the sitting rooms through the hotel. Walkable to lots of restaurants. 10/10 stay.

The room was spotless, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. There's a well-equipped shared kitchen on the first floor where you can cook meals, toast bread, and prepare other food. Complimentary coffee and tea are also available, which was a nice touch. The only downside is that the room is a bit small for two people. Other than that, it was a great stay, and I would happily recommend it.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The check in was very frustrating and confusing, you had to go to another building but there were no visible or available directions. We were not the only ones having the same issue. The rooms were microscopic, just enough room to shimy along the side of the bed. We were on the 2nd floor and just as we were settling in it sounded like a herd of elephants arrived upstairs. It was incredibly noisy! You also weren’t able to see the numbers on the key pad to activate them. The staff was nice when you could figure out where they were located. The place was clean and the kitchen was useful.

Convenient and walkable to town and restaurants. Room was very small and floor was squeaky. Besides having private bathroom, felt somewhat like a hostel. Clean, but very basic and no frills. Friendly staff.

The room was tiny but cute & cozy. It had most everything thing you need but the really amazing aspect was the restaurant which served an extremely delicious dinner. Bravo to the chef(s). Just as nice were the staff especially Ugo & his partner Anna Maria , so friendly , welcoming and attentive! Special thanks to Ugo for an interesting conversation. The breakfast repast was equally delicious. Thank you for a brief but memorable stay!

The room was compact, cosy and clean. It had a proper double bed, not 2 singles pushed up together, there was a eating area where residents could eat their own food, a lounge area with comfortable seats and a fantastic breakfast that was served in the nearby hotel.
