My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful. The rooms were fantastic with all the modern conveniences, comfy beds, and fantastic staff. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with only a few breakfast options available. The location was very good, offering easy access to the old city and nearby transportation hubs. The service was top-notch, with the staff being incredibly helpful and friendly. Overall, a great value for money experience.
