Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is convenient, close to shops, and local attractions. The rooms are spacious with ample storage space and great breakfast. The staff members we encountered, from the cook to management, were polite. The dining included warm dishes but the evening service was a bit slow. The hotel is well away from the nightlife but still within walking distance. However, the heaters were off in the middle toilet, and there was no air conditioning available.
The hotel had not been cleaned from the person before, clothes were in the wardrobe, the bed had not been changed, and there was no top sheet, giving an appalling view. However, there was ample storage space for bedding, etc.
