Our room, a junior suite was quite large and surgically clean. Bathroom was very modern, large and with great water pressure. Staff was great. My only caution would be to comment that this is not an air-conditioned hotel in the usual sense. There is a system which can be set to lower the temperature in the room slightly, but we found it ineffective. If you're not comfortable sleeping in a warm room, this hotel might best be considered only in the cooler months.

Nice property in the heart of old town. No true air conditioning (apparently not permitted in that part of the city) but their innovative cooling system (circulating water through the basement I believe) was very effective. Great stay!
