It is a beautiful and safe place, friendly staff, I just wish there was more utensils in the kitchen. I warn you that is kind a far from downtown and a car is needed. But definitely worth what you pay for it.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Beautiful old city, but downtown awfully crowded and noisy. Hotel is in a very good location, has a lot of character. Taxis easy to get nearby. Unfortunately, everything was closed down just before we got there, so we couldn't go to many places.
