Pros +

  • Our room was big and comfortable, the breakfast was delicious, I loved every bite. Bonus: there is one man in the staff who told us the history of the building and some suggestions regarding what to visit. He was very kind and dedicated Thank you!!

Cons -

  • As an Italian I always miss the bidet while traveling but I understand it can't be anywhere. Breakfast was really early in the morning (6.30-9.30 am). I would suggest adding a couple more vegan options!
  • The entrance to parking should be easier access. Our room was cold, and we tried to regulate the temperature,but we realised it was a central heating regulation, so it stayed cold all night. Not carpet in the bathroom,after shower, it became slippery.And hair dryer stopped every minute with 5 min break, and it was a bit annoying. Another small detail is the window of our room looking towards another guest room ,so as seamed not crowded the expectation was that maybe we would be no facing any guest room.
