A perfect hotel for an international tourist. Great facilities, friendly staff, great breakfast. The only single downfall is the road it's on. A challenge to get to with a car or on foot.

The standard rooms are not suitable for business travel as the "desk" in my room was barely 30cm wide. The superior rooms are better however. Service was also somewhat lackluster.

A great place to say

We stayed six nights at this hotel, which is centrally located. We had a junior twin room on the last floor, with a great view. It was spacious, comfy, very clean. The beds were very comfortable. Staff were very polite, professional and helpful. There were A LOT of options to chose from for breakfast. We would not hesitate staying at this hotel in the future, and we have no problem recommending it.
