Nice break away
The hotel was clean and quaint. Breakfast food was okay and there was access to hot drinks 24 hours which was great. No restaurant at hotel but there is a bar, guessing not fully stocked by the look of it but adequate. Close to bus stop 8 for different tour pick up or airport transfer drop off.

Doesnt look much like the pictures, the quality is much worse than it appears. I sprained my ankle and they dont have elevators. They have stairs going down into the property then going back up to get to rooms.

Only stay here for location.
Best thing about hotel is location and there is free parking next to the church however the breakfast wasn’t great, the bed is uncomfortable and pillows were hard. The shower water leaks all over the bathroom floor so it feels like you’re in a camper van or something. Pretty small rooms as well. The receptionists were very nice and location was perfect. But I wouldn’t stay here again.

The hotel is literally steps from the famous church and so centrally located to everything in the city. It was so nice that I was upgraded to a better room, such a nice birthday present. Thanks for a great stay!
