It’s located outside main City but convenient and easily accessible. Daily morning breakfast is excellent with lots of variety. The staff is very helpful and polite. I would say very good value for money.

Great hotel at affordable price!
The breakfast was amazing, loved the beds and reception staff. The only issue was heater and hot water during our stay - the service was super slow. Otherwise, I really appreciate the cleanliness and well kept rooms. Thumbs up for great rooms at affordable prices!
