A sanctuary for peace and calmness.
Pros:

Such a pretty hotel with plants and flowers in so many places.
Comfy bed, great shower and some rooms have a balcony.
After a hot day wandering around the bust streets, I looked forward to coming back every afternoon to cool down.
Loved that it was also a short walk to eateries and supermarket is just around the corner.
Such friendly team working to make you feel right at home, including a really friendly cat.
Definitely value for money!
Just note that the location is not accurate on google maps. It is opposite side of the road where google points you to. Just look for the yellow block with pretty greens outside.

Pros:

Room is well equiped, only quite warm. Staff is helpful. I like the setup of the rooms with plants and little patios. No noise, eventhough you are in a busy area.

Cons:

No ventilation in the room except airconditioning, which has to blow very hard to get the room cold.

Angenehm und ansprechend
Pros:

Insgesamt war die Unterkunft angenehm, sauber und sicher. Es wäre aber noch besser, wenn das Hotel nicht von einer Strasse geteilt wäre, und es mehr als nur zwei Fernsehsender geben würde. Das Personal war immer freundlich und hilfsbereit.
