The staff was helpful giving tips about local stores. The location was close to everything. The communication in English was smooth , and check-in was easy.
The room was small. I found the lock difficult to see because it was dark next to the door. The lamps had dust on them , and they looked fairly tired.
The front desk had a warm woman. She gave excellent recommendations for sites and eateries. The hotel provided a book in the room. It included many recommendations. We liked the ability to park bicycles in the courtyard. The hotel also had a very good restaurant close by. The cafe had nice food and service.
