The location was superb. A back entrance leads directly to the main square, a very convenient feature. The rooftop terrace offered very nice views. I enjoyed a nice dinner there, and the staff were particularly friendly (I have to mention it!).
I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't a coffee set-up in the room. I noticed there wasn't coffee available in the lobby either unless you purchased breakfast. my room was quite noisy because of its proximity to the stairs (it was a bit irritating).
