"We left check-in a bit too late which came a faff as we were approaching the property on public transport. You need to check-in to obtain an entry code for the building and your room. Our own fault - we should have read the instructions earlier and checked-in to get the code. All good in the end though - the apartment was immaculate, well sited for access across the city and we'd certainly recommend to others and would revisit."

Hotel Besso

10/10 Excellent
"Amazing hotel, lovely lovely staff. Waited for us to arrive after 12am although check in ended. Well maintained hotel and excellent location. The only thing we would say is was the room was so hot because it’s summer and very hot outside. The fan didn’t do much, air con would be amazing and a great addition to this lovely hotel. Thank you! We will stay again!"
