    Nothing. Note if you get there a bit earlier there is a number on door to call as 4.30pm is way too late check in for weary travellers. Note also you are above a restaurant so expect noise in evening, didn’t worry us.

    Location excellent if you don’t mind carrying bags into castle etc.

    Do not be fooled by the door with Auberge des Lices written all over it, that is not the entrance. Go to the door to the left which seems like the restaurant entrance. Here you will find a notice with early arrival instructions

    the room is all you could expect, clean and comfortable

    Nothing, please remember they don’t advertise it as a hotel as it’s above a restaurant. We were there over Friday and Saturday and was a bit noisy but it didn’t bother us.

    It was in the old city walls the rooms were massive, and the building was medieval.

    No stand up shower. Hot Water is limited, but enough for a quick shower/bath. Only real issue was getting luggage up the 12 minute cobblestone uphill walk after parking outside the walls.

    It’s inside the city walls. Location was fantastic. Especially in the evening and morning before the crowds came. Friendly staff, too.

    No English TV channels. Lack of a proper shower. Poor lighting on stairs with no handrail. Would not be suitable for an elderly person.

    This was an excellent choice as a stop over before my early flight the following day. Enjoyed the meal in the restaurant. Very peaceful location.

    Unfortunately there is a loud bar about half a block away. We expected some murmurs from the restaurant below us but we had no idea that we would hear popular music into the night. We were looking forward to a tranquil setting in the middle of a medieval fortress. People should also take into account about $30 a day to park their car just outside the city walls.

    We loved being inside the fortress walls. The room was beautiful and the staff was very helpful. We enjoyed dining at the restaurant. We were amazed at the view and the size of the bathtub.

    There was nothing that I didn't like. Well, okay maybe not the flight of stairs to our room... but hey, it's an old building and it is authentic.

    Location was excellent. The staff were attentive and friendly. They run both the accommodation and the first-class restaurant, so they are busy, for them to accommodate our questions and desire for good coffee at all hours was a bonus. We ate at the restaurant twice on our stay and the meals were superb. being summer we were seated in the shaded leafy courtyard, the dining room looked welcoming for winter visitors. Our room was a lovely surprise too, for the price we were rewarded with greater comfort than expected and an excellent view of the old basilica. On our departure we gave a box of chocolates to the young staff who cared for us and were met with tears and hugs, they were beautiful young women.

    I wrote the previous morning (over 24 hours before our stay) asking for help with leaving luggage at the property but received no reply so we had to carry our rucksacks around all day as check isn’t until 6.30pm which is very late (my mum is in her 70s so carrying her luggage all day because the apartment couldn’t find time to reply was not great). It was made very clear when we arrived that it is Restaurant with 2 rooms, not a hotel which didn’t seem very welcoming and check in was very rushed. While the room was everything we wanted at a good price for the location, the owner seems to forget that, just like his customers in the restaurant, we are also paying and he should have taken the time to communicate with us as well.

    The room was exactly as shown in the photos and had space for 4 people. If friends are travelling together, there is the possibility of sleeping in separate areas which allows some privacy. Tea and coffee making facilities are available and the room is very large and spacious. The bathroom and bath are both huge. There are lovely views of the city walls and the location is excellent - inside the medieval city walls. There are lots of bars and restaurants nearby. Once you are aware of the negatives below, I would recommend staying here for the views and the location.
