This was by far the best hotel we stayed in during our two week trip. The rooms were larger and the amenities were better. We really enjoyed the breakfast and the front desk staff were helpful and spoke English well. The location was perfect with plenty of things to do near by, restaurants and the train stations. I would stay here again. I had 4 rooms since I was traveling with three adult children.
