Hotel Villa Flora

The hotel was just “OK”. It was clean and the attached restaurant had a nice ambiance and the food was good. Given that the hotel was in a very old building, there are certain challenges that come along with that. Paper thin walls, heavy footsteps from above, your neighbors TV noise. However, it was very quiet once everyone settled in for the night. The bed was not very comfortable and the pillows were awful. From a photo standpoint, it had a cute IKEA look but the functionality was missing. The floating nightstands were cute, but useless. The bathroom was dated but the shower was excellent. The most frustrating was the absolute lack of ANY staff service. A reason to stay in a hotel instead of an Airbnb is to have someone available to ask questions. At least Airbnb hosts usually have a detailed information booklet of services, transportation options, bus information etc. The sign at reception advised guests to find the staff in the restaurant if you had questions but the restaurant was very busy and this really wasn’t much of an option. You even checked in and out online! It was like the restaurant was the real business; the hotel was an afterthought.

The room was nice and quiet, situated on the first floor. Although there was a wedding on the ground floor, we didn't hear anything. All looked very clean and well taken care of. The only reason I give 4 stars is the bathroom, which was clean but very old and used. Breakfast was 12,5 per person, and very nice - had gluten-free bread upon request. Parking was available in the front. Overall, it was a very nice stay.
