Yes, the room was very clean and the staff friendly as always but nothing beats the location of Electra Palace. We had booked a room facing the square and the Christmas tree lighting ceremony took place in the evening. Just fantastic

It was nice to have a family room, two rooms connected, at a reasonable price. Location was a little loud because it was across the street from the bar scene.
