A Gem in the Heart of the City

spacious room beverage selection clean towel

I found the room very spacious with separate areas for the toilet, bath, and sink. The hotel offered an extensive selection of complimentary beverages, a good touch. Clean towels were provided daily. The bathroom layout was well-designed offering plenty of space.

The breakfast options did not quite align with my preferences. It proved challenging to find breakfast places that suited my taste in the broader area.
