The staff were very friendly, and we had a comfortable stay. The amenities were excellent as well. Since it’s on a street with many restaurants, the noise at night was a bit noticeable, but apart from that, I was very satisfied.

I really liked it. Lots of stairs so be aware if you have big bags. But safe, cozy, really comfortable beds and super great location. Yes it is abit old but honestly many big hotel chains charge double -triple and are also old looking so great for the price and it was super clean and tidy.

The hotel was spotless with good WiFi. In an excellent location . Close to bus station . Many good restaurants and shopping near by. The staff were extremely friendly and most helpful. Rooms are tiny but with very nice linensOnly negative was the 2 flights of steep stairs but staff was very willing to help with luggage.
