My stay spanned four nights, and i found the location convenient. Major historical sites were within easy WALKING distance, what a blessing. The staff provided really good service. They assisted with directions and recommendations. I particularly enjoyed the breakfast. The rooftop view complemented the wide variety of food.
the room faced an internal courtyard, and noise from it was quite disruptive late into the night, such a pity! it really impacted my ability to rest fully.
