I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel, especially because of its excellent location right in the heart of the old city center. The room I stayed in was spacious and had large windows, but it could definitely use some modernization. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, particularly with parking arrangements. On the downside, while the dining options were pretty good, they felt a bit limited compared to other hotels I've stayed at. Overall, it was a good value for money.

The hotel has a fantastic location right in the heart of the historic city center, making it super convenient to explore. My room was spacious and clean with a lovely view of Toural Square, though I would've preferred a balcony and a fridge. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, giving great recommendations.
