Despite the very comfortable bed, this was not a decent place to sleep. The beautifully renovated building's layout is built around a glass-covered central courtyard, whose esthetic properties are cancelled out by its absurd acoustic properties. The entire hotel is a literal echo chamber, wherein every word from the front-desk staff, every giggle from a child, every squeek from a suitcase wheel, every click of a heel on the stone floors reverberates through the entire building and enters unmitigated through the flimsy hollow doors without a knock. When, at one point, one guest was stopped in front of my door and calling out to his other in an nearby room not to forget the key card, I opened my eyes in a panic because it sounded like he was at the foot of my bed.
Additionally, I have to mention something that I found profoundly petty and dishonest. The shower has shampoo- and bodywash-holders; the pump bottles there are for specific products with their respective labels, even advertising where we can buy them if we enjoy them. I went to the website advertised on one of them. The staff refill these bottles with whatever cheap products are at hand, it seems. The hand-/bodywash bottle promised an aloe-enriched soap with real peppermint oil, but what it contained was an unnaturally colored green industrial substance with an unpleasant chemical smell -- was it even meant for washing the skin? I'd prefer to use my own travel products over being misled into using something like that.
