The room types cover a wide range of occupancy, from a double room for two people up to a family room for five guests.
Bed configurations vary depending on the room type: options range from the double bed in double rooms to combinations with bunk beds and a large double bed in the more spacious solutions, suitable for small groups or large families. This modular setup makes the property a practical choice for those travelling with others who want to choose between complete privacy and a more limited budget, while always maintaining the same proximity to the historic centre.
