“I find the location of this hotel to be a standout, steps away from the Leaning Tower, placing guests at the heart of Pisa's attractions. The rooftop terrace enhances the experience, especially during breakfast, and the pet-friendly policy broadens its appeal. While rooms prioritize comfort, those with substantial luggage might find space tight, though the attentive staff ensures a welcoming stay.”
