We had a decent stay at this traditional hotel. We enjoyed a practical location, absolutely perfect rooms and flexible staff. And it also had pleasant view. Service was exemplary, shared information about a basilica and a mosque close to the property.

It was worth its 3 stars. Nice staff and location and all in all it's quiet hotel. Easy walk to seven hills restaurant, where you can have lunch. Really loved the standard triple room we had.
The street outside is quite noisy.
