The refrig is overheated and useless, the bathroom is tiny but hey - there is a huge flat screen that I don’t need. No space for luggage and the AC is very slow to cool down the room. In USA this would maybe pass for a 3* but I’ve had holiday inn rooms that are larger. Location was a strong selling point but our driver told us it is a hike from everything. On the plus side the room faces the square but is quiet.

Wish I had checked the photos more closely as the Academia looks like the quality level we should have booked. Or maybe just stuck with my old standby the Intercon. Unfortunately we prepaid but does not seem worth E200 x 2 rooms and now stuck here for 3 nights
