I don’t understand how anyone could give this place a 5-star rating. It isn’t terrible but certainly not worthy of more than 3 stars. The hotel is within easy walking distance of the central square and the garden is pretty but that counts for just so much. My room was cramped, dark and cold containing nothing beyond a big bed, 3 old coat hangers on a rail and an invalid shower chair. Yes folks, while there was no ordinary chair there was one of those things with holes in the seat that is used for showering people who can’t stand properly to wash themselves. What is that about? The wifi in my room was very bad. When it functioned, which was less than 50% of the time during my 2-night stay, it was slow enough to be reminiscent of the old dial up days. On the plus side the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was functional with good water pressure and ample hot water but, the mattress was covered in plastic that crackled whenever I turned over and the bathroom had no window so everything gets fairly steamed up. The much praised terrace is okay but the weather during my stay was misty and cool with the furniture all swathed in plastic so it was less of an asset than it would be during sunny days. Breakfast was included but my omelet incurred an additional 55 cent charge and although a perfectly nice omelet was not the one that I had ordered and came with bread even though I had agreed to tortillas as an alternative. Small complaints but it all adds up to less than 5 -tar facilities and service.
