I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The warm and welcoming service from the staff, particularly Sergio, made a real difference. The breakfast was a highlight with a fantastic variety, including some delicious local options. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the river and main attractions. While my room was comfortable and clean, I did find it a bit on the smaller side. Overall, the excellent amenities and affordable pricing made it a worthwhile experience.
