8/10 Very good

Very good but set your expectations accordingly
This hotel was on our last couple days of a 3 week trip. I prioritized location and safety first. There were better 2 to 3 star hotels which were newer and had better rooms but either their location wasn’t optimal for walking the gothic quarter and or was in a small tight alley in the gothic quarter which is a hit or miss on safety as well as getting taxis. Also this hotel is cheaper than all of them and IS NOT a hostel. So this is a 2 star hotel with its own restaurant that is a little worn but well kept considering and can compete with hostel prices easily if you reserve long enough in advance and it helps to be off season.
Room was fine and I requested for a balcony and got it. Also we checked in very early from a cruise ship and our room was already ready. If not they do store your bags in storage until it is ready. There are safes you can use up front for 2.5 Euros per day since the room does not have one.
As for the room it was spartan, minimal a little dated but clean. Hall noise and your neighbors noise will easily pass through the walls. If you get a window or balcony facing the plaza you WILL hear all the noise late into the morning til about 6am. YES. It’s not because of massive parties and events at the plaza which does happen with all the restaurants and street vendors but you get the colosseum echo effect with even small groups. I’m a heavy sleeper so no problem here. Great views though with the balcony. Centrally located is a big plus.
