In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book

Restaurants and bars are close by, with Pasqualino just 140 meters away.
  • Strong facilities and services — The Facilities rating is 9.5, the highest category. Services like express check-in/out, luggage storage, and 24-hour reception are included, along with a grocery shopping service.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Small space at 23 m² — The apartment is compact, which may feel tight for two people or longer stays. The room options are limited to a single bed or a double bed, so it's best suited for solo travelers or couples.
  • Comfort rating is notably lower — The Comfort category scores just 6.2, the lowest of all rated aspects. This might reflect the compact size, limited bedding, or the street-level location on a major avenue.
  • No pets and no parking — Pets are not allowed, and there is no parking mentioned, which could be inconvenient for guests arriving by car. The central location, however, makes it possible to rely on public transport.
