A great, memorable stay

Pros: I recommend this hotel. I especially loved the hotel’s location that was walking distance to the main attractions and surrounded by shops and the terrace view. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and the breakfast was variable and lovely. The customer service was excellent. I would love to stay there again.

Cons: The room we stayed in was small and the balcony was too small and narrow to fit a chair in. The view from the room was okay. These were minor things that didn’t affect our stay.
