  • Rohan from India (8/10)

  • Catalina from United Kingdom (9/10)

    It was close to majority of attraction on the European side. Quite far from metro, but close to a tramvay station. A bit difficult to reach as you have to go down/ climb steep hills. The place was clean, and suitable for 2 people. Cleaning was done every day. The staff si very friendly and provide amazing customer service. The breakfast is tasty, and although it seems small, it is very filling and enough.
