"Ideally located and a very short walk to the port area. Complimentary breakfast which was a bonus. Rooms are not huge but this is not an issue if you're out most of the time anyway. Very friendly staff. It is worth asking reception to book a taxi if you're going to the airport (approx. €25)."

"What a beautiful place to stay, seeped in history, right in the heart of the old town. We had a fantastic time with friendly staff, a clean, comfortable, air conditioned room. Some of the smaller ally streets can feel a little unsafe but if you stick to the main ones it was great :)"
