Absolutely beautifully kept place. The garden in the courtyard is immaculate every single day, and it truly feels like a hidden oasis. The restaurant Margui is excellent, one of the best fine dining meals at a very reasonable price. Do book early, though, because our first night they were fully booked.
The room is very comfortable, with a large king bed and plenty of space. The shower and bathroom are just a work of art with a custom sink and backsplash that looks like mermaid scales. The little reading nook in front of the window is very cute. Even though there are shutters to shut out the light, the street noise does permeate once in a while. Didn't bother me, but husband could hear every loud bang (from maybe cars running over a manhole?).
Service is impeccable. We had an issue with a day tour booked through an online vendor, and the front desk personnel was able to help us find alternate options. Everyone was friendly and greeted us. There is always someone at the front door. We left at 6:30am one day, and it turned out that they actually kept the enormous front door closed for safety, but were able to open it for us to head out.
The location is unparalleled. You are in the heart of it all, literally half a block from the Cathedral. We were able to finish dinner, pop out just a minute before the Saturday night fireworks, and still had prime viewing spot. For all the other tourist spots, they are all easily walkable as well.
