My husband and I stayed in this hotel for two nights in february of this year. It is a fair walk to the center and it's attractions but served our purpose. Personnel polite, breakfast normal variety and room with a decent view of the street covered in snow at that time! Quiet except for some traffic noise before midnight and clean enough. Luggage was kept for us in a pile along with a mountain of other cases on the day we were leaving which made us a bit nervous! Was a difficult time to get a reservation as we came for the 'coming out 'parade of the newly sworn in police so in the hotel as with Avila in general, we felt they took all the visitors a bit for granted during this time. Was a good enough hotel for what we wanted and if you wish to visit this beautiful city, this hotel is on par with all others.
