Fantastic Location and Great Amenities!

superb locationcomplimentary drinkconvenient accessnice touch
The location is superb, right in the heart of the shopping area! I found it very convenient to access the fish market and various eateries. A very pleasant surprise was the complimentary drink each night. I thought that was a really nice touch. I will definitely return to this hotel next time I am in town!!!
The bathroom fan ran constantly, a bit noisy. The refrigerator hummed a lot, and there was no off switch, so someone had to unplug it.
