    Great kitchen equipment (pots, utensils, microwave etc.) It was exceptionally clean and well-kept. The staff was lovely and helpful. The place was only 5-15 minutes walk from almost every tourist spot in the town.

    Le gestione da remoto è molto efficiente e amichevole, gli spazi comuni molto comodi. Buona la zona lavanderia anche se in una sede distaccata. L'aria condizionata è della struttura non delle singole camere, tenuta ad una temperatura giusta. C'è...
