amazing location, great service!

I loved the central location. It was so convenient! umberto was kind and helpful.. he offered fantastic suggestions. the complimentary coffee and tea were a great touch, especially in the morning. the room was clean and spacious, perfect for my needs.
the street outside was noisy, so i could hear conversations and street sounds. noise-canceling windows would be a significant improvement here.. it slightly impacted my sleep quality.
