Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
We stayed here for two nights. Our experience was more like renting an apartment from a private person that a room in a hotel. The reception desk was not available at check in, and few times I needed something for my room maybe after 4 pm. Overall room was clean but everyone who rent a room should be aware of the church bells that go off every 15 minutes, even during the nights.
