I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfy, with a nice view of the garden courtyard one floor up, despite the lingering smell of cigarettes. The staff, who have been with the family for 40 years, were friendly and helpful, going out of their way to ensure my comfort. The location was ideal for me, within easy reach of the city center and right next to public transportation options. The dining experience was satisfactory, offering a good mix of savory and sweet options, but on the basic side. Overall, a decent value for the price paid.
