Why people love it

  • The host and team. Veronica is named in several reviews for her communication and restaurant recommendations, and Giulio is thanked in March and April 2026.
  • Breakfast in the room. Guests in 2026 say breakfast is brought to the room at a time they choose, with many options.
  • Free minibar. Guests in June and August 2026 mention a stocked minibar of complimentary drinks.
  • Decor and rooms. Guests praise the personally decorated rooms, including the Lovelock room and the Humboldt Suite.
  • City tips. Guests receive written advice on where to eat and what to visit.

The worst thing guests say

In 25 reviews from December 2025 to September 2026, the lowest rating is 3 stars, from September 2026. That guest chose the hotel partly because it was advertised as a vegetarian and vegan hotel, and described it as a nice boutique hotel about a 20-minute walk from the center. A 2022 review rated 2 stars says guests on the lower floor have no access to breakfast or the living room. A 2024 1-star review says the hotel felt too stuffy.

Insider tips

  • It is a guesthouse in a residential building, so find the entrance before you arrive.
  • Ask which floor your suite is on, because a 2022 guest on the lower floor had no access to the breakfast room.
  • The walk to the center is about 20 minutes, and the location is outside the ZTL zone.
  • If you want a vegetarian or vegan property, confirm what is offered before you book.
Who it's for: couples who want a personally run, decorated suite with breakfast in the room.
Skip it if you want a full-service hotel with a front desk and restaurant.
