My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant due to its great location in the heart of the old city and friendly staff. The rooms offered a good level of comfort, but the view from the balcony was lacking. Overall, it’s a decent option for the price, but the dining options left a bit to be desired.

I had a great stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, set in a quiet residential area but still just a short walk to all the attractions. The rooms were clean and comfortable, making for a restful night’s sleep. The staff were friendly and accommodating, although the dining options left a little to be desired. Overall, it's good value for money but some areas need improvement, especially the dining experience.

The hotel offered a convenient stay in a quiet part of the city, close to the airport and city center. The rooms, while clean and with a private bathroom, had a strange patio view and lacked ventilation. The staff were extraordinarily friendly and accommodating. However, the dining experience was quite limited, and the overall ambiance could use some improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which is located in a nice, quiet residential area, making it a peaceful retreat while still being close to the city center. The rooms were modern and comfortable, with great air conditioning, but I did notice the bathrooms are shared. The staff were incredibly friendly and made my stay enjoyable. However, I found the combination of shared bathrooms and the need for Wi-Fi to be less than ideal.

I had a decent stay with some highlights and a few downsides. The location is pretty good, nestled in a quiet street near the city center, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. However, the room was a bit odd with a view of an unappealing patio, and the breakfast options were quite limited for my taste. Overall, decent value for money considering the circumstances.

The hotel is situated in a quiet residential area, making it a nice retreat while still being close to shops and restaurants. The rooms, while clean, had a balcony that overlooked a not-so-appealing patio, and I missed having a ventilator in the room. On the bright side, the service was incredibly friendly, and they accommodated all my requests without any issues. Overall, it was good value for money, but the location lacked the vibrancy I was hoping for.

My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The rooms were comfortable and had powerful air conditioning, which was a blessing in the heat. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, always ready to help. However, the dining options left something to be desired, and the location, while quiet, was a little tricky to navigate due to the nearby dirty street. It's a solid choice for anyone looking for a convenient spot at a reasonable price, but it’s not without its drawbacks.
