"Breakfast was however overall location is step away from Latin bridge and assasination world war 1"
"Quaint, adorable place with extremely accessible locations close to all things in old town. Comfy beds! AC could have been a little better, but was still kept the room cool. The only thing I suggest is bringing an eye mask if your sensitive to light, as the room we were in overlooked the center of the markets and street lights were on all night. There are curtains but they do not block the light completely. Would stay here again!!!"
