We had a very nice stay, perfect location as the main touristic attractions are at a walking distance, yet very quiet to sleep. To find Trendy restaurants and nightlife you should go to other neighbourhoods, all reachable with public transportations.

10/10

The location is outstanding and the staff was so supportive and helpful. The terrace has an outstanding view and breakfast was delicious. Lots of amazing food and great coffee, we looked forward to it every morning. The rooms are a little dated and as any old building a lot of creaking but overall a great stay.
