Stayed for 3 nights in one of their larger rooms that was really nice with a King size bed and plenty of space to move around. The room, the bed , the bathroom was immaculately clean. The location is in the heart of the old town. Everything checked out for us and would highly recommend.

It was a good location for the old town. During the day there are several restaurants open, but after 6 pm the choices nearby are limited. Our first room had a strong cigarette smell, but the staff moved us with no issue the next morning to a clean room.
