Great location, walking distance to most places. The staff is very kind and provided helpful infos. The breakfast is tasty, but if it was needed to leave earlier then breakfast starts, then there was an option to have a sandwich to go. They manage transfer to airport too on affordable price. Recommended hotel.:)
