The hotel was nice, a bit outdated but very comfortable. Staff was very friendly, they helped us with directions to move around the city. The pool was very nice, perfect to relax after a long day. Nice buffet breakfast.

Staff is helpful and kind. First we had the impression that location was not so good but finally old town is at walking distance. Food at restaurant (à la carte) was good. Nice breakfast buffet (good for value) including fresh fruit and omelette à la minute for a good price. Free for children at least up to 9.
