"The area as you approach the hotel is crowded with people coming out of bars or dining at restaurants with street tables, but once in the hotel, you entered a place where the noise of the street was replaced by tranquility."

The hotel was super clean. The lobby smelled wonderful. the staff was kind. breakfast provided many options. It was really yummy.

I found the towels stiff. they reminded me of blotting paper. there was limited storage space. No drawers existed for clothes, just a wardrobe with three hangers.
