The staff was very friendly. They told us about local attractions upon arrival. I appreciated the option to have breakfast earlier when we had an early departure. The breakfast included hot and cold options, good bread, and coffee. The staff even packed us fruit and juice since our flight left so early.

The shower floor became slippery while showering.

This hotel had friendly staff who were always ready to help. My room was spacious, clean, and quiet (i slept so well!). The location was ideal for exploring the old town.

The bathroom had a bad smell, so i had to keep the door closed. The tv was very old and did not have English channels. The breakfast selection was not great (i wanted more options).
