Great mid priced property. Location for sightseeing is super. Well maintained and decent size rooms. Bar and lounge area on site and close to restaurants in old town. I didn't mind there was no air conditioning but it will be noisy especially with open windows. The bar goers will yell and construction starts early. Loud bangs that go on very early. Bring earplugs to stay here.
