Perfect for history lovers
The wine and cheese reception was a pleasant surprise. I appreciated the beautiful building that really felt like you were stepping back in time. it was also easy to walk to so many places from there.
It wasn't inexpensive but still acceptable.

We had an awesome time staying in this historic gem! The rooftop pool had stunning views, and we enjoyed wine and cheese every evening. Perfectly located for exploring nearby beaches and the vibrant nightlife. Staff was super friendly and always helpful. Don't miss the delicious food at the onsite restaurant!
The check-in process was a bit chaotic for us. We arrived earlier and had to wait longer than expected for our room, which wasn't ready until after the scheduled time.

The homemade ice cream is a must-try, and you can easily unwind at the rooftop bar with fabulous views. Plus, the location is spot on—everything’s a stroll away! The staff were also incredibly friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming vibe.
The WiFi could use a boost. connecting with the room bill was tricky. While the decor looked fab online, the room felt a smidge cramped and lacked a large mirror.
