Our room was #201 a Junior Suite. Was a great room overlooking the square but.....There was no WIFI, the Jacuzzi Tub did not work and the Roof Top Bar across went Crazy until 5:00am on Saturday - did not sleep. Sunday night it closed at 12:00pm. Would stay again but never on the side facing the square. The pool is fantastic with a beautiful view.
