One of the highlights was Zahid and his service and cooking. As soon as we got there he came and chatted with our family, getting to know us all. Zahid runs the cafe in the evening for drinks and a small range of food. Well worth stopping here. He was friendly, always welcoming us home each afternoon and cooked us pizza over and over again. Pizza was a great evening meal after a long day out.
The rooms were clean and spacious. It was also good that they had some basic information about buses, trains and local as well as city places to eat. Cleaner did a great job and anything extra we needed (pillows and towels) was provided quickly.
I agree the paths are thin but easily walkable in a line of people. Maybe an issue if you have a large pram. The metro was the best public transport for us as we were using it peak hour and the buses were full. It is a short walk. It took about 30 minutes to get to most attractions from walking and taking metro. Best spot to buy metro tickets is at the station. If you buy at the Tabacco place near maccas you need to have cash.
The local area was a bit rougher than the city but you we did not feel unsafe at any point even walking late at night.
The breakfast was average and probably not worth the 66 euros it cost our family each day. Bacon was cold every day, ran out of bread loads unless you were there on opening, juice had floating stuff in it. Perhaps buy on a day to day bases rather than upfront as you may find there are days you choose to eat elsewhere.
We found that the gelati near the hotel was not very nice (but this is not the hotels issue)
7.0 / 10.0Good·Oct 2025
Staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable.
The hotel bar and lounge facilities were not as comfortable as they could be. The walk to the nearest Metro station was longer than anticipated through very busy traffic.

Staff, Cleanliness and Breakfast where great. Bed were comfy too.
The property is a bit run down, it could use a refresh.
