I stayed at this hotel and enjoyed its central location, which made sightseeing a breeze. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but a bit on the dull side design-wise. The staff was incredibly helpful, especially when they changed my booking with no extra charge. However, I missed breakfast one morning because no one informed me about the earlier end time. Overall, it was a good stay, but there are a few things that could be improved.

I had a great experience at this hotel, mainly because of its fantastic location right in the center of town. The rooms were traditionally styled and very comfortable, and the staff went above and beyond to help me out. However, I found the dining area a bit overcrowded, and the absence of air conditioning in the rooms was a downside, especially during the warmer days. Overall, it's a good value for money and a decent place to stay.
