Reviews and Ratings
The hotel room was smaller than expected but still very comfortable and well-decorated. The large balcony offered a nice view, and overall, the room had all the expected facilities for a standard hotel stay.
The hotel room was comfortable and well-equipped, with everything needed for a pleasant stay. However, the bathroom's dark ambiance may not suit everyone's taste. The service was accommodating and pleasant, but attention to detail could be improved to prevent potential hazards. The location offers a mix of convenience and tranquility, with some areas for leisurely walks but can be pricey for short stays. The dining experience provided well-prepared meals, but the room service lacked the charm of dining in the restaurant. Overall, a decent option with potential for enhancements in certain areas.
