It’s a nice hotel.
Pros:

The location is good as you can arrive at most old town landmarks by walk. Some restaurants and groceries are around the hotel. The staff of swimming poor and breakfast are very kind and helpful, because they always think about looking after their guests. Overall, the hotel is a bit old, and the room is not big. But the swimming pool, rooftop restaurant are both give an extra value for this hotel.

Cons:

The air conditioning sound is very loud. It had a smoke smell in the room after we checked in.
