Previous visits to this hotel, i have been very lucky and gotten a room with a little balcony (as a smoker, what a treat). This time, less lucky, got a top-floor room with a very cozy, under-the-eaves, but still somewhat cramped feel. Colour scheme was unusual but quite beautiful, golds and coppers offset with a grey-teal shade very like patina. When i lay on the bed i could look out a little attic window at pigeons. A very romantic servant's quarters vibe, not everyone's favourite but i thought it was sweet.
I did remove one star for a rock hard mattress on the bed and also quite a petite little bathroom that introduced my knees to the sink a few times too many. But shabby chic and very cute. Walking the stairs to the 3rd floor only a medium hassle. I do love this place.
