I loved this hotel and so did my Mom! The rooms were big for a European hotel. Everything was clean and they had nice products. My room had a great view of the street below but wasn’t too noisy. She had an interior room which was quiet and she really liked her bed. It wasn’t too hard or too soft. AC worked well and so did the WiFi. Would stay there in again! Staff was friendly too and helped us with a cab to the airport, the driver came into the lobby and took all our bags, and used Waze to get us to the airport really fast!
