The hotel offers a unique room layout with the toilet at the end of a corridor designed like a dance floor, creating a comfortable and tourist-friendly environment. The service is top-notch, from the friendly cleaning ladies to the restaurant workers. The location is central and convenient, though it can get busy. The dining experience is enjoyable with a reasonably varied menu. Overall, a bit pricey for what's offered but worth it for the atmosphere.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were very quiet and well-equipped, perfect for unwinding after a full day of activities. However, they were extremely small, wishing for more space and amenities. The service was top-notch, with staff who are so helpful and lovely, always ready to assist without any issue. The location, slightly off-putting at first, turned out to be perfect for those wanting a quick escape. The dining experience was basic but satisfactory, with a nice selection of hot and cold food. Despite some minor drawbacks, the hotel offers good value for money.
