The hotel was perfect! Loved the location in central Colonia. The door to our room opened onto the courtyard and it was lovely to sit and enjoy the view of the fountain. The bed was comfortable and we would stay here again!

Nice inn in the historic center, well decorated but the room had a worn-out mattress so I slept very badly. I made the complaint at reception they didn't even apologize. The breakfast is correct, in a place with a nice view and with good Nespresso coffee.

A pousada é linda, tudo muito limpo e a recepção foi muito solitica e nos ajudou até a chamar um táxi na hora de ir embora. Nos deixaram também guardar as malas até a hora de irmos. O único problema que tive foi na hora de dormir, que senti um cheiro muito ruim que vinha de fora, parecia veneno. Durou alguns minutos. Acredito que devido a cidade ser muito antiga possa ter alguns problemas com insetos. Mas fora esse pequeno problema, a estadia foi excelente, muito confortável!
