I found the location superb, situated right in the heart of the Gothic Quarter. Nearby I saw many shops and cafés. The rooftop pool provided welcome relief after exploring the city each day. The reception operated smoothly. The staff are clearly used to tourist inquiries.
I encountered a slightly worn room. The bathroom looked old and the walls showed some water stains from the air conditioning unit. I think the hotel should consider upgrading these aspects soon.
