È stato tutto perfetto e il personale è stato pronto a mettersi a disposizione per risolvere un problema che avevamo in stanza (avevamo il getto del condizionatore che puntava sul letto. Penso però sarebbe da risolvere in modo definitivo). L'unica cosa che mi ha deluso è stata chiedere un extra al prezzo della prima colazione, per avere una spremuta di arancia. Il prezzo della colazione non è basso; non credo possa essere un problema far rientrare anche una spremuta in quella cifra. Ma temo sia una pratica abbastanza diffusa. Comunque, a parte questo, la permanenza è stata bellissima e ci tornerò sicuramente.

Great location close to shops, restaurants and tours. Hotel staff friendly and courteous and have a smorgasbord breakfast at adjoining Bistro for 16 euro. Big disappointment was the quality of food and lack of fresh fruit and vegetables. Had dinner at three different venues around hotel with very average offerings at high price (20 - 30 Euros each).

Watch out for unknown charges when you check in

Hotel did not tell us we had to pay a city tax until we left. Why did they not charge us this when we checked it??? Normally you can leave a hotel without checking out. We travel all over the world.

A lovely stay and great staff

The property is very clean and well-cared for. The location is also excellent, and we appreciated having enough space for both of our suitcases. The staff was also very lovely. Our "issue" (and it's not a really big deal at all) is that the "Modernist" design so touted by the ads, was just really hokey, and even looked a bit cheap. The light fixtures in the room were WAY too bright, and the hallways were just a bit grim. Of course, this is very subjective.
