The hotel is brilliantly located close to literally everything, offering convenience at its best. The rooms provide a comfy bed for a good night's sleep, but shared bathrooms might not be for everyone. The service is outstanding with a welcoming drink to start your stay on a positive note. The dining options, especially the burgers, are a delight to the taste buds. While the facilities are well-maintained, a few more amenities could enhance the overall experience.

This hotel is a gem with its prime location close to everything we wanted to explore and offering a cozy atmosphere. The rooms were comfortable and very clean, but the shared bathrooms could be a downside. The service was top-notch with a lovely welcome drink, yet the pricing could have been more competitive.

I couldn't have asked for a better location for this hotel—it's close to everything we wanted to go, and the bar and restaurant downstairs were so convenient. The room I stayed in had a comfy bed, just what I needed after a long day of exploring. However, the shared bathrooms were a bit of an inconvenience, and the price felt a bit high for the overall experience.

I tried the traditional fish dish at the restaurant, and it was delicious. However, the prices were a bit on the higher side.
