Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Dining is hit or miss — While breakfast is praised, the dinner menu receives mixed feedback — one guest called it 'very good', another found breakfast only 'OK' at dinner time.
- 25-minute walk to the fountain — The Neptune Fountain is a 25-minute stroll away, so the hotel isn't in the very heart of the historic centre; expect a walk or a short metro ride.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if you're travelling with an animal.
- Check-in window is set — Check-in runs from 14:00 to 23:59, so plan to arrive within that window if you don't want to wait.
