Rooms are well-soundproofed, clean, and come equipped with comfortable beds and decent showers; some even feature city views, and a Nespresso machine is a welcome addition. While the absence of a lift to upper floors might pose a challenge, the welcoming reception and the adjacent bakery provide a charming touch.”
