The hotel was in a quiet area, but walkable to every monument. My room was the perfect size for me, and the bed was comfortable. If you don’t purchase the breakfast option, then ask to have at least coffee from the breakfast room. The rooms don’t have coffee makers.

Mould all over the shower and bathroom

They didn’t give us the wine that was included until we asked
I have never been this disappointed with a hotel, and I never write reviews I feel like I have the need to write one this time. The room smells like toilet, and it doesn’t go away doesn’t matter what I do. Facilities are aged and outdated, room size is limited but understandable. Some of the staffs are helpful, there was one staff that helped me checked in who had a very bad attitude. I don’t know if it’s the city police I have checked my bills, and I had paid tax THREE times, which never happened to me in any other places in Europe. As a student studying in hospitality management for 5 years. I have been very disappointed with the overall quality of stay at this hotel and it should not be rated as a four star hotel on all levels.
