I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, right in the heart of the city, making it so convenient to get around and explore. The rooms were spotless and had the most comfortable double bed on level 3, ensuring a great night's sleep. The service was top-notch with a delightful welcome drink and happy hour to add that extra touch of hospitality. However, the dining experience with the included Sicilian pastries was a bit lacking. The facilities were modern and well-equipped, offering everything one could need for a fantastic stay.
