I had a lovely stay at this hotel, enjoying their clean and comfortable rooms. The location couldn’t be better; I was right in the bustling center of the Old City. The breakfast was basic but sufficient for my needs. One downside was the limited dining options available throughout the day, but overall, it’s a good deal for what you get.

I had a really pleasant stay at this hotel! The rooms were both clean and comfortable, which made for a cozy retreat after a day of exploring. The location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of the city, making it so easy to find great dining options nearby. However, I did notice that the dining options, particularly for breakfast, were somewhat limited. Overall, I felt it was a good value for money, but a few improvements in the dining department would be appreciated.

I had a great stay at this hotel! The rooms were modern and very spacious, making it a comfortable place to relax. The location was perfect for exploring the Old City, with plenty of restaurants within walking distance. However, I found the dining options to be a little limited, especially for breakfast. On the plus side, the hotel’s amenities were excellent, but the Wi-Fi being a paid service was a bit of a letdown.

The hotel has a stunning view of the water and is conveniently located near a variety of restaurants. The room was spacious and modern, which made my stay more enjoyable. However, the service could have been more attentive, and the dining options were fairly limited, particularly at breakfast. Overall, it offers good value for what you pay, but there are areas that need improvement.
