The hotel is located in a quiet and safe neighborhood, offering a peaceful stay. The rooms come with a balcony on the first level, all modern amenities, and a bathtub, providing a cozy atmosphere. The service was exceptional, with staff going out of their way to accommodate every request. The dining experience included home-grown products, giving a taste of local freshness. However, the facilities could use a bit of improvement to enhance the overall experience.
