Enjoyed the free sandwiches, beer and the delicious breakfast provided by the hotel. The only thing that I can suggest, is that the mattress was old. Location of this hotel is excellent. Walking distance to most important attractions.

We had a great six nights stay at the hotel. Excellent staff and very friendly. The breakfast were amazing for a hotel on a beautiful rooftop.central location for the historic district. It was about a 20 minute cab ride to some of the other touristareas. Especially nice having the coffee shop that included a lot of food and friendly staff, especially Axel.

This is one of two review as I stayed in two different rooms. First was the suite, much larger and nicer. Was facing beautiful Cathedral so amazing view! Was a bit loud but to be expected. Worth staying here. From Check in which was nothing less than 5 star service, our front desk Katrina was fantastic, i cant say more about how welcoming, she was. I told her it was my birthday and she had a surprise for me the next day of cake and decorated my room WOW! She truly was amazing. FOOD is fantastic as well, from top roof restaurant to the cafe. We had dinner at the rooftop and again service was top notch. Breakfast was not your usual, they truly show they care about their guest. My husband said he did not want to stay at any other place when we return. He ever says that LOL.. he loved everything. I truly recommend this hotel.
