Hyvä sijainti ja hinta-laatusuhde.
Pros:

Mahdollisuus kirjautua hotelliin sisään netissä ennen saapumista. Siisteys. Huoneen äänieristys oli myös varsin hyvä huolimatta siitä, että ikkunat olivat vilkkaasti liikennöidyn maantien puolella (ei silti paras valinta kaikkien herkkäunisimmille). Parasta hotellissa on sen keskeinen sijainti vanhankaupungin hiljaisimmassa nurkassa. Henkilökunta vaikutti ystävälliseltä.

Cons:

Aamiaishuone on melko pieni mistä johtuen aamiaisella oli välillä pientä tungoksen makua, ei kuitenkaan mitään suurempaa ongelmaa. Perusaamiainen OK.
