    Value for money

I had an amazing time at this hotel! It's perfectly located, close to the city centre, buses to everywhere in the city, and all the attractions. The cleanliness of the hotel was impeccable, and the facilities were top-notch. I also appreciated the convenience of parking and how easy it was to get around this city. The staff were friendly and helpful, making me feel right at home. The breakfast was delicious, especially the scrambled eggs!

Can't think of anything.

Close to the city center, with easy access to tourist attractions

Nothing for us.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The room was spacious and had patio doors, which provided a nice breeze when we opened them. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The hotel's central location within walking distance of the city centre made it very convenient. We were also pleased with the breakfast options, which included a vegetarian choice. Additionally, transportation was very accessible with regular buses at a reasonable day pass price.

All was good.
