We did not stay in this property. The Expedia ad said we could have a shower or bathtub. I requested bathtub and then sent numerous messages to the Hotel to make sure I was getting my request. I sent them before the deadline for a refund. I received messages, but my question was not answered. Then, on the day of the reservation, they said that the room I chose does not come with a bathtub. I cannot stay in a room without a bathtub - so I cancelled and expect a full refund. Thanks, Frances Restuccia

Location was perfect - easy 8min walk to/from train station and walkable to all sightseeing spots. Breakfast was great; staff was super friendly and helpful. Good wifi, near market and food, always felt safe. Its quite loud at night but the location itself was well worth it. Would stay again.

Staff (both reception and housekeeping) were very friendly and helpful. Hotel’s location was great. The mattresses were awful, however, and it was difficult to get a good night’s sleep. The noise of the plumbing and the other guests was clearly audible. There were a few minor issues with the safe and the shower leaking.

Smaller room than expected, but we had access to the downstairs lounge during the day to help cool off in the heat wave. Staff was friendly and breakfast was delectable. Great value and location to train station.
