I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The room on the fourth floor was incredible with its large wooden beams, huge bathroom, and beautiful soaker tub with glass walls. It was spacious and comfortable, although a bit noisy being next to the vending machines and kitchen roof vents.

My stay at the hotel was amazing! The rooms were so perfect, and I loved the nice restaurant with a large wine cave. It was a great place for both drinks and dinner. However, the completely exposed shower in the room was a bit odd and kept me up at night. The courtyard view was lovely.

The dining options were good with cereal, muffins, biscuits, juice, and coffee, yet it could be improved by adding items like bread, jam, butter, and cheese for more variety. Overall, the dining experience was satisfactory.

The hotel offers a clean and comfortable stay with very friendly staff. The rooms are cozy, but the darkness and slightly uncomfortable mattress may be a downside. However, the tranquility, modern bathroom, and Jacuzzi tub add a touch of luxury. The complimentary breakfast is impressive but lacks variety. A great value for money overall.
