excellent location and friendly service

great locationfriendly staffevening drinkssmall bathroom
the location is superb, very near the train station. the staff proved friendly and informative . i found the room clean and well appointed (it even had a mini-bar). the hotel bar was also a nice touch for evening drinks.
i found the bathroom quite small, and it was hard to use the shower. it would be good to have a bit more space there.

the hotel is conveniently located near the main train station (approximately a two-minute walk). the city bus stop is just outside the hotel entrance, providing easy access to various destinations. a tourist bus stop also sits about 100 meters away from the hotel.

The reception staff provided helpful tips about local restaurants (i tried one. It was great!). the staff also offered luggage storage before check-in (i arrived early due to the rain). a welcome drink was available upon arrival.

Balanced stay near the train station

convenient locationtasty breakfastsmall roomno air conditioning
The hotel location was very convenient, especially since I arrived by train. I found it easy to walk to various restaurants and the San Lorenzo market. Breakfast was also a nice perk and I had good coffee.
The room was quite small. This made it hard to use the shower. There was also no air conditioning during the night. I had to open the window.
