The family room was spacious! And we had a direct view of the Basilica out of every window. The room had a stuffy, ash tray smell, but opening windows helped. Otherwise VERY clean and well maintained with high quality bedding and furniture. The “shuttle” is not a shuttle, but concierge-arranged hired car service, 2-3x more expensive than a taxi for a family. Otherwise Metro and bus stops are steps away from the front door. Above all, the location was ideal for getting to all of the sites and restaurants. Would stay there again, 100%
