Clean room, but very small bathroom. Pigeons outside the window are really loud and crazy. Check-in with a machine is a pretty cool feature. There's free water and coffie.
-
Absolutely brilliant location, right in the square. Very pretty. Lots of good restaurants and bars. Wonderfully clean everywhere. Fresh linen and towels every day. Faultless really. The only comment would be that it might be difficult for people with mobility issues due to stairs.
-
It is possibly the worst paid place ive ever stayed at. Sure i never do hostels, but make no mistake, this really is a humbling level of basic needs. For the price i expected at least sun light in my room, a shower where i can fit (i am lean), and a more user friendly check in. Sorry but not happy.
-
Budget friendly, decent room, right in the middle of bustling terrace. If you are on solo trip I can recommend this place.
-
Awful service and team. Nobody in reception all time. Screen box for automatic check in is not stable. They can cancel your reservation at your arriving time
Best for
Budget-conscious families and solo travelers.
