The staff were very friendly and helpful. The bed and pillows were on the soft side. The water in the shower didn’t have a lot of pressure and it didn’t heat up too much.

Being a former convent converted to a hotel gave it a unique vibe. Loved the daily wine and cheese happy hour, pool/hot tub, and the AC and wifi worked well. Everything was tidy and clean, excellent Old Town location you could walk everywhere. Staff was responsive.

In an attempt to keep the hotel looking old, they don't fix certain things that should be fixed. The employees are very nice and friendly , but my room was never serviced before three pm.

Our stay was exceptional. Even though we were redirected to another hotel the first night, the hotel staff made sure we were probably taking care of. Hotel is super charming, the staff is very helpful, and friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. Overall, a very pleasant stay. A special mention to Antonio at the reception for going above and beyond.
