Wonderful hotel in a great location

The room was a little small, but that wasn't a huge factor as we were pretty much only in the room to sleep, but having an elevator was a must for us as we're getting too old to be carrying luggage up stairs. The hotel is not quite in as touristy of a location as some of the others, which is something we wanted, and the restaurant next door, Fucco Matto, turned out to be our favorite for the entire trip, and was the only place we actually went back to a second time. Getting a taxi or learning the bus system can be challenging, and the staff was very helpful with that as well. All in all, Hotel St. James was a wonderful place to stay and I would absolutely recommend it and stay there again.
