The staff was very friendly. They welcomed me with refreshing drinks and advised me on interesting places to visit. The hotel has beautiful decorations! The rooms are comfy, and breakfasts are delicious too.

The price-quality ratio could be improved! I expected better equipment for the price I paid. I found some issues with the bathroom.
