Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, the staff was lovely, and the breakfast was delightful. However, the brightly lit street outside the room could be a bit bothersome at night. Overall, a great experience!
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were comfortable and included a nice big bathtub, but we could hear quite a bit of noise from the hostel across the street. The service was excellent, with attentive staff who greeted us with a juice concoction. The location was convenient, just a short walk from the main street with shops and restaurants. The dining options were good, catering to various preferences but lacked some vegan dishes.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel which offered spacious and comfortable rooms, although they showed a bit of wear and tear. The service was top-notch, making up for any minor shortcomings. The central location provided easy access to a variety of dining options. The dining experience was decent, but with room for improvement in freshness and variety.
