The room included slippers and a bathrobe! Breakfast offered several tasty options. The location was very central. It was just a short walk to main attractions.
The air conditioning was not the best. The room felt warm. The website showed a rooftop terrace, BUT access was only for specific rooms. The room size felt small for three adults.
