excellent location inside the walls

quiet roomshelpful staffcomfortable armchairs
i found the location to be superb for exploring the medieval city. the staff was helpful and pleasant. i appreciated the quiet guest areas with large armchairs and subdued lighting, perfect for relaxation.
The room decor seemed somewhat dated. It could benefit from a refresh, though it was still adequate.

the room had fresh towels daily and the white linen felt luxurious. a nice touch included still and fizzy water replenished daily in the room fridge. the presence of a small terrace provided a pleasant space to relax in the evening.

the location is inside the citadel walls, very close to everything. the hotel car service transported luggage from a pickup point outside the walls through tiny streets. the fun ride was an experience in itself, and i appreciated the convenience.
