I had a lovely time at this hotel, which boasts a great location right in the heart of the old town. The rooms were clean and comfortable, making my stay quite pleasant. On the downside, the dining options could use some improvement, especially for breakfast. Overall, it was good value for money but there were a few areas that could be better.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is located right in the middle of the old town and made accessing all the attractions super easy. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but I wish they had more amenities. The dining experience was decent, with some fresh local vegetables, although there could be more variety on the menu. Overall, the value for money was good considering the central location and comfort.

Although the dining options could use some improvement, especially for breakfast, I found the overall experience to be worth the price. However, the Wi-Fi wasn't complimentary, which was a bit of a downside.
