The hotel is centrally located in the heart of the city, making it convenient for exploring the tourist spots nearby. The rooms are cozy, but the heating was lacking during the freezing weather, and the small bathroom was not as clean as expected. The service was spot-on, with staff available at all times and ready to assist with housekeeping and tour arrangements. The dining options were not included, but if you fancy classic fried fish, it's available. Overall, a decent stay with a few minor drawbacks.
