This is a nice hotel with some pros and cons. Pros: Good location close to good bakeries, coffee shops, shopping, and theaters. It's a fairly long walk to the Kalsa and Cattedrale, so not so convenient if you want to focus your sightseeing on those areas. The hotel is clean and the rooms are modern ...
