Very clean and comfortable property. We stayed with two kids, and the separate room with a tv was nice to have. The front desk staff especially was outstanding. A refrigerator in the room would be nice, but the staff was very gracious about storing food in the refrigerator in the check in area, so it was no problem.

This hotel was built in the 1400s and is of historical significance. It is a beautiful place to stay. The staff is very friendly and all of the room amenities were excellent. We had a suite with two full bathrooms and two bedrooms it was facing the inner courtyard so the room was very quiet. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here.

This is a beautiful hotel, with much character! The rooms were comfortable and we appreciated having access to a water dispenser. The location was great, with many restaurants and shops with walking distance, as well as easy access to public transportation. Unfortunately, we visited during a heat wave and the air conditioning was not working, it took a some time for it to get resolved, but in the end it was worked out. Would have liked to have access to a fitness center, but the charm and character of the hotel was worth the trade off.
