We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in the old town. The location is excellent, being very close to the city center and within walking distance of restaurants and the waterfront. The hotel facilities were clean and comfortable, with a spacious room and a nice, big bed. The air conditioning worked well and wasn't noisy. The staff were friendly and helpful, managing our transportation from the airport late at night. Additionally, the breakfast provided was good and filling.
Not obvious to find.

The best things about my stay were the friendly and helpful staff, the comfortable beds with insect screens, and the central location in the heart of the old town. The hotel facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the breakfast provided was good. I also appreciated the easy transportation arrangements made by the hotel staff.
Not one thing.

I had a great stay at this guest house in the old town. The location was perfect - right in the center of the old city center and close to everything. The hotel facilities were clean and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and insect screens on the windows. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable. Plus, the breakfast was delicious and filling, giving me a good start to each day.
Nothing, all great.
