Adequate Stay

friendly staff great location weak breakfast worn furniture
The location is great, near restaurants and shops. I found the staff friendly and helpful. It was a very pretty square, with cafes. The hotel welcomed my dog warmly at the restaurant.
The breakfast was weak. It had low-quality pastries. Basic options like cheese were missing. The room lacked amenities. There were no toothbrushes. I also noticed worn furniture, and the carpet was quite used.
