We encountered multiple cockroaches at night. The hotel seems to have been aware of their presence. Cockroaches happen, and in and of itself this is not an issue. What we did not like is that the hotel ignored our complaint (+reminder) for three weeks and counting.
Great atmosphere, really tasteful mix of contemporary and historical elements. Location and staff are superb. The efficient room design makes a the small-ish room feel big. I believe all rooms overlook the beautiful courtyard.
