"Overall nice enough hotel and well located. Walking distance to most touristic places. Staff were attentive and housekeeping was good and professional. We did not have breakfast included, so I won’t talk about that. In general check in and check out were smooth and it was a nice experience. Although there was some construction going on in the building and in the one facing the hotel, thankfully we couldn’t hear it in our room."
