The setting is nice and thoughtfully designed, but there’s no real hotel service. You enter your room through the cafe bar, and there’s no reception or phone, so you have to go outside and find a waiter whenever you need something. The noise is a serious issue if you want to sleep early. In November it goes quiet after 12:30 AM, but they say it can last until 3 or 4 AM in summer. Pleasant surroundings, but not somewhere I’d choose to relax and stay.

It’s nearly 1 AM and the music is still blaring, even though the staff member who served us said it would be turned off sometime between 11 PM and midnight. Simply terrible. If you don’t mind missing sleep, go ahead.

We had booked three nights, but the room meant for us was given to another customer. Then, at 10 PM on check-in day, they said renovations meant they couldn’t put us in the room. We’d stayed here many times because of the location, though the rooms were always mediocre. After this awful service and organization, we won’t come back, and I can’t recommend it.

The room cleaning ladies were so sweet and helpful. We also really enjoyed the tasty breakfasts out front, and the music and cocktails in the evening were lovely. We love this place a lot. Thank you!
