Reviews
Beautiful pool area. Very safe neighborhood. Hotel was cleaned every day. Highly recommend. AC unit made repetitive clicking noise. Hot showers. Quiet and peaceful.
The receptionist Marianne was very friendly and helpful. She helped me to find a driver to pick us up at 4h30 in the morning since I don't have any Uber account. The hotel was not the most updated decor but it's clean, it has all we needed and a mini pool. There's a mini market nearby if you have missing anything
Wonderful hotel, we loved it. The room was very spacious and clean, beds big and very good. We loved the ambience with the pool and the flowers. It's a quiet area, just the occasional small plane by day. Night was silent and breakfast tasty and fresh made. Highly recommend for all who want a small hotel. Uber is cheap and you don't pay much to get to the old city Special thanks to lovely Marian who helped us with everything 😊
