The building itself look a bit aged, but it has being well maintained, the room size is ok for 2 . The toilet and the shower were functional. The breakfast was excelent, with a wide variety of hot and cold meals. The location is quite frightening by night, but during the day, it was ok, with the Green Market from walking distance. Good options of restaurants nearby. One of the few hotels which provides parking.
