Excellent Location and Friendly Staff!
convenient locationroof terracehelpful stafflimited fridge
I stayed in a Standard Room. The location is very convenient. It's a short walk to many tourist sites. The roof terrace is a great place for breakfast with city views. The staff were very helpful.
The mini fridge had only two water bottles for the entire stay. More variety would be great.
