The hotel offers excellent value for money with clean and well-maintained rooms on higher floors, although lacking a real balcony. The service is a mix of poor customer service encounters but exceptional attention from the waiter. The location is superb, right in the heart of the city and within walking distance to everything. The dining options are somewhat limited but include regional dishes. Overall, it's a mixed experience with some standout positive and negative aspects to consider.
