My husband and I stayed here from 4 March - 10 March 2011. The location of this hotel is really what you are paying for.
Our room was basic but clean. Not fancy, but realistically we just slept there at night. Some of the reviews we read complained that the room was too small. But we found that it was fine - especially because we kept all our suitcases in the large wardrobe so it helped keep the room feeling more spacious. The bedding was very comfortable.
Our only complaint about the room was the shower. It could be a little temperamental and it took a while for the hot water to start. Sometimes the water temperature would suddenly become very hot or very cold. The tap handles were a little stiff, but we found that if we really turned them hard, we could adjust the temperature back to a good level.
The only downside about this hotel was the front desk staff. They were not friendly at all and were actually quiet rude - except for the young guy who worked the late night shifts. He was very friendly and helpful.
The hotel itself is very ornate inside and really feels like a turn of the century building. Just lovely. Also there were free muffins and coffee in the morning which was great. The hotel has a coin operated laundry which is very helpful. Whilst it doesn't have a restaurant, it is directly across the road from Ayza wine and chocolate bar. It's a great little place, very popular. We recommend the white truffle pizza! Yum!!
All in all, we would stay here again. Its a great price, for a fantastic location. Aside from the largely rude staff, its really a nice little place - as long as you aren't expecting the Plaza.
