I stayed in the hotel and the location proved very convenient, close to shops and eateries. our room featured functional kitchen facilities. the breakfast offered a good variety of choices each morning including yogurt and fruit. The food was AMAZING!!! i particularly appreciated the free luggage storage. It helped a lot on my last day.
The noise from the street was noticeable. a bar nearby played music late into the night which impacted sleep quality. earplugs might be essential for light sleepers.

I found the staff helpful. They promptly arranged taxis for my day trips. The included breakfast was a great perk. A money saver and variety sufficed till dinner. The location proved ideal, close to bus stops and many bars.
I noticed a very slight sulphur smell from the hot water in the bathroom, but cold water was fine.

Staff members booked taxis quickly, which helped when I made day trips. Team members are very helpful. I would book again because of the helpful service.
