It appears a classic facade doesn't guarantee a flawless modern experience.”

classic look spacious room mediocre welcome missing iron
the hotel was very central. i really liked that the building had a classic look. the room was also very spacious, it was bigger than i expected.
the welcome was mediocre and not overly friendly. i noticed some features you often find in smaller hotels were missing, like an iron and board.

nightclub noise missing amenities
I was initially pleased with the central location, near the shopping area. the noise level at night was unexpected. A nightclub nearby caused thudding sounds, and street noise continued until early morning. The lack of basic amenities like shampoo and bottled water was also disappointing.

i found the location to be really central. walking everywhere was very easy because of this. our room included a bath and that was a pleasant feature. we had two small balconies because our room sat at a corner.
