The location is within reasonable walking distance to the town center. The room was clean upon my arrival. Breakfasts was delicous, a positive aspect of this hotel.
The room lacked both air conditioning and a refrigerator. The bathroom looked somewhat dated with a fixed shower head. I had to repeatedly flush the toilet.
