The hotel offers comfortable rooms with a 'view' option at a reasonable 4-star price. The service is friendly and very helpful, making the stay enjoyable. Located in a convenient area with dining options within walking distance, although a bit stingy with cups and glasses. The dining experience could be improved, but overall, a pleasant stay.
