I had a lovely stay at the hotel with my boyfriend. The room was beautiful, clean, and comfy, although it was a bit of a trek from the elevators. The service was very good and professional, and the staff remembered our drinks each night. The location was central, making it convenient for exploring the city's attractions. Overall, a great choice with a few minor inconveniences.

The hotel's location was excellent, right in the center of town, within walking distance to all the sights. The rooms were spotless clean and nicely furnished, although my room was not ready with a big bed as requested. The service was very helpful and friendly, but there were some issues with the knowledge about the City's Touristic Attractions. The dining experience was amazing, particularly enjoying the courtyard setting, and the facilities were top-notch.
