I had a nice stay at the hotel, which is right in the heart of the old square. The room I stayed in was clean and offered a lovely view of Piaţa Mică, but the angled ceiling was a bit odd. The staff were friendly, but there was a hiccup with my reservation. Overall, it’s a good value for the location and cleanliness, but the service could use some improvement.

The rooms were very clean and the staff was friendly. However, I found the room temperature to be uncomfortably high, even with the air conditioning, and the service had its hiccups as they didn't record our reservation properly.
