“The boutique hotel has a prime location near historical attractions and features sophisticated spaces for events; the rooftop bar, Urania, promises panoramic views, though some may find it smaller than expected. While some rooms provide a dark atmosphere that could be amazing during hotter months, others may feel underwhelming, as some maintenance issues may arise. Ultimately, I think it's a mixed bag of great location and potential drawbacks.”
