    central location
    diverse breakfast
    poor cleanliness

    We had an unforgettable stay, being right in the heart of the city, just a stroll away from all the iconic sights. The local delights were endless, making it easy to explore while having our little baby with us. The breakfast was delightful and diverse.

    In my wife's opinion, the room cleanliness was lacking. It would be great if they improved the cleaning standards for family rooms.

    A Comfy Stay with a Delicious Breakfast

    I had a wonderful time during my stay! The breakfast included various options—fresh breads, cheeses, and Turkish delights. Staff members were warm and welcoming, offering me coffee upon arrival. For a touch of adventure, explore nearby attractions on foot. they're only a short walk away!

    small room
    limited space

    The room was clean and cozy, really comfy beds. They provided nice touches like slippers and bathrobes. But it was a bit smaller than I expected, so if you need space, keep that in mind. The view from our room was pretty cool, and the decor felt charming. Just wish it had a little more elbow room.
