The hotel is conveniently located in the center of the city, close to the beaches, cafes, restaurants, and public transport, making it ideal for travelers. The rooms, although small and with no opening windows unless paying extra, were exceptionally clean and quiet, with a desk for convenience. The lack of parking was a downside, but staying up on the balcony until 3 am was a unique experience.
