After switching hotels because the first one was not the best, this place was near god-send. We loved the breakfast, loc
Pros:

You can’t beat the location! Right next to the plaza central, we were able to walk everywhere and even got a taxi right outside.

Pros:

I was in a single room and there was no safe. I would have liked it. I like the breakfast and the front desk. The two flights of stairs were a challenge for an 80 year old. Ibwould hifhly recommend the hotel

Wonderful stay!
Pros:

The hotel's location is perfect. Within walking distance of the main square and all sorts of restaurants and shops nearby. The room was clean and had everything you needed. The staff was friendly. Breakfast was good—you could choose from a variety of dishes. They even made breakfast for us when we had to leave early. I recommend the hotel!

Cons:

The bathroom was a bit small

Pros:

Location was good and we enjoyed breakfast

Cons:

The family room has a weird layout with a bathroom in the middle and the shower at one end near the queen bed. There is no view and not soundproof.
