A lovely place to stay
A lovely place to stay if you have a large room. Very efficient, polite staff at reception, helpful and warm. Nice building, amazing bathroom amenities and a well preserved continental breakfast. Also the fruit and pastries offered in the lobby a very nice touch. About five minutes walk from the metro station, about 20 mins walk to the main sites and a supermarket a couple of minutes away.

We were able to walk to all parts of town to see most of the major attractions. Good restaurants and shopping were also close by.
Our room was on a lower floor and very quiet.
