the location is great, across from the main bus station! it is walking distance to the city center. the breakfast buffet was the best i have seen, with fresh and well stocked food.
i found that people did gym in the next room. it made much noise. the staff seemed insufficient for the size of the hotel. there was no air conditioning in the rooms, only central air, not manageable independently.
