"Convenient and comfortable stay."

8.0

Lovely staff, very convenient location, rooms are compact but functional if you’re staying in your own.

I was staying in a room on the first floor at the front of the property and that was quite noisy with all the cards and your bussed arriving and leaving. Better to sleep at the back of the hotel.

The location of this hotel was amazing. Quick backstreet walk to all the shops and restaurants. We enjoyed massages, working out at the gym and day trips to see this beautiful area. There are many choices of restaurants nearby. The staff was so friendly and we loved the service at this hotel!!
