excellent location snack selection easy access small room carpeted floor suitcase space
the location was excellent. it allowed easy access to shops and restaurants (i found some great souvenirs). breakfast was a treat with a very nice selection of snacks upon arrival.
the room i had was quite small. opening my suitcase fully was a bit of a challenge (i packed a lot). the carpeted floor was also something i didn't particularly like.

The hotel is in a central location on the main street. The staff provided attentive service and useful information. The room featured a kitchenette equipped with a microwave and pod coffee machine. It was convenient to have meals at the table in the room.
The hotel lacks air conditioning, so the room became warm during the afternoon. The windows did not provide sufficient air circulation. A small fan was present but its blades were dusty.
