Stayed for 3 nights on a room only basis. The check in was quick and efficient. The room was a very good size with everything you could need. The coffee machine was a nice touch but very difficult to use. We did also have a kettle with teabags and coffee sachets, so no real prob. No milk in the room but a trip to the bar resulted in a jug of milk we could keep in the mini bar. We didn’t eat in the hotel. Breakfast was in the lobby area and was €10 per person. We went round the corner to bar dori in carrefour. Really lovely people and very reasonable. Less than 5 euros for 2 coffees and croissants. It all depends on how much you want to eat but that was enough for us! They had new lifts at the hotel which were a bit sensitive. 10 people were meant to fit in but the lift decided when it was full and stopped, maybe after 7 people with bags. I am sure they will soon be recalibrated. Checkout is 12.00 which is good but we checked out earlier and were able to leave our bags in the secure luggage store. Overall very happy with our stay. If you get a metro ticket that is for more than one trip be aware...24 hours is 24 hours but 3 days is on a calendar basis, so our ticket purchased circa 17.00 on Sat did not run out at 17.00 on Tues as we expected, it ran out on Tues am because it was a 3 day pass....i.e. Sat; Sun; Mon. If you arrive late it might be best to use a single ticket to your accommodation and buy your period pass the next day. The hotel web site has good info re how to get there but could usefully explain more about the transport system so you can pick the best option. less
