charming stay in a historical building

free sweetscomfortable beddecent gymeasy tram
the sweets and prosecco were a lovely, freely available treat in reception. our room was a good size. the bed proved really comfy.. spa and gym were pretty decent for the size and price this hotel offers. i walked from the city center in about 35 minutes and found the tram easily navigable.
The hotel is beautiful from the outside. i found the interior design a bit too rich and perhaps lacking a certain style.

the breakfast was delicious and offered many choices. i also found the room nice and clean. we loved the spacious shower.
The hotel menu had limited options and there weren't many convenience stores within walking distance. i experienced a rude porter. His tone was unacceptable and it was actually none of his concern.

i found the staff kind. lotus, the concierge, offered tons of travel information before i even arrived. she answered my emails promptly regarding trains, trams, and points of interest.. i really appreciated that level of detail. the hotel bar was a great spot for evening bites and drinks.
the spa area felt smaller than expected, and it lacked some attention to detail. it didn't quite match the five-star expectation.
