    spacious rooms
    fantastic spot
    milk accessibility
    coffee troubles

    Fantastic spot in an adorable old section with spacious, comfy rooms. I reminded me of royalty waking up to the lively courtyard.

    But good luck getting some milk for coffee! Apparently, it's cheaper to just go out for a pint of cow juice.

    Well located in quiet but attractive square. Nice, well furnished hotel.

    We had a lovely room overlooking the square, our friends were not so lucky, their room was dark and overlooked the air conditioning unit.

    limited seating

    Perfect Location and Charming Atmosphere

    I loved the charming decor with traditional artwork and beautiful period touches that added to the overall atmosphere. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of the Jewish Quarter. The breakfast offered a delicious selection of options, and I particularly enjoyed their freshly made omelets. One thing to note is that some seating areas could be more accessible, especially during peak times.
