The location was great. It made walking to major attractions easy. The breakfast atmosphere was also very nice. I found the live music at breakfast with the harp added to the ambiance (especially nice with La Scala nearby).

The shower was a tub shower combo. The ledge to get into the tub was very high. At 5'9", i struggled to get in. Water got onto the bathroom floor because the shower rain head was in the middle of the tub and lacked a curtain.

the location is great. it is easy to walk to major attractions.

The shower was a tub and shower combo with a ledge that was really high. i struggled to get in and even banged my knee twice. there was no curtain or door, so water went onto the bathroom floor. It was honestly the worst shower i've ever seen in a hotel.
