Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room I stayed in was situated high above the street with a charming balcony offering a view over the tile rooftops, but the noise from the stairwell and people on the first floor was distracting. The service was excellent, but some noise disturbances were a drawback. The location was convenient for exploring the hilltop village and nearby attractions, though the street noise was a downside. The dining was exceptional with a variety of fresh and delicious options available. Overall, a stay with its ups and downs.
My stay at the hotel was truly delightful. The rooms were picturesque and perfect, offering superb water pressure and temperature, with a lovely view of the courtyard. The service was exceptional, making me feel at home, and the charming location added to the overall experience. The dining experience was exceptional, offering a wide selection of local products for a true culinary delight.
