8.1Verified guest“The building had character with high ceilings and marble floors. The location was superb, with the U-train station and major sites within walking distance. Staff at Pension Ani were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout. The room was cleaned daily and the bed was comfortable. I also liked being able to leave my bags at reception on departure day. Plus, the heating worked perfectly during my December visit. Cons: hard to think of any.”
