Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at the hotel and had a great experience overall. The room was cozy and had a kitchen for added convenience, but the only downside was the lack of a proper door separating the balcony area. The service at reception was friendly, and I enjoyed a nice welcome drink along with assistance with tour bookings. The location was perfect, just outside the bustling area of town in a pleasant neighborhood, and very close to the Coliseum. The dining experience with a focus on fish dishes was delightful. The facilities were well-maintained, offering a satisfying experience. However, the only slight letdown was the higher than expected price for the value received.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The rooms were clean and well-equipped with a great quality kitchen and toiletries. The service at the reception desk was top-notch, and the welcome drink was a nice touch. The location was ideal, just outside the busy town area but close to the city center. The American pancakes served for dining were delicious. The facilities were excellent overall.
This hotel boasts a convenient location just outside the busy area of the town, with easy access to the SMN train station. The rooms are kept clean and feature a double bed, but the sofa had not been upgraded as shown in the photos online. The service at the reception desk is friendly, offering a welcome drink and tours/ticket assistance. The dining area provides fresh coffee, and overall, the hotel offers good value for money.
