I had a lovely stay at this hotel, enjoying their clean and comfortable rooms. The location couldn’t be better; I was right in the bustling center of the Old City. The breakfast was basic but sufficient for my needs. One downside was the limited dining options available throughout the day, but overall, it’s a good deal for what you get.

I had a great stay at this hotel! The rooms were modern and very spacious, making it a comfortable place to relax. The location was perfect for exploring the Old City, with plenty of restaurants within walking distance. However, I found the dining options to be a little limited, especially for breakfast. On the plus side, the hotel’s amenities were excellent, but the Wi-Fi being a paid service was a bit of a letdown.

The hotel has a stunning view of the water and is conveniently located near a variety of restaurants. The room was spacious and modern, which made my stay more enjoyable. However, the service could have been more attentive, and the dining options were fairly limited, particularly at breakfast. Overall, it offers good value for what you pay, but there are areas that need improvement.
