The hotel is ideally located at the center, close to the old city center and near everything, making it convenient for exploring the main attractions. The rooms are spacious and modern, offering a comfortable stay. The service is top-notch with a very friendly staff. However, the dining options are limited, mainly offering corn flakes for breakfast. On the other hand, the facilities are of high quality, providing a luxurious experience.

The hotel had a great location in the center, really close to the main attractions, making it easy to walk to all the sights. The rooms were spacious and modern, with all the basic amenities and two comfortable beds. Despite the hand-cut steaks offered in the dining area, the service was not up to par. The facilities were top-notch, offering a luxurious experience, but the pricing was a bit high for the value provided.

The hotel is situated in the heart of the old town, which gives it a great location advantage. The rooms offer all the basic amenities needed for a comfortable stay, but having just 2 beds might be a bit limiting for larger groups. The service provided was top-notch but at a slightly higher price point. However, the dining options, especially the pies, were exceptional, providing good value for money with delicious offerings.
