This hotel has a charming atmosphere and is filled with potential, but it does need some care and updates. The rooftop deck is lovely, but service can be lacking, especially in the food areas. The rooms are adequate for the price, but there are definitely cleanliness issues that need addressing, especially for a place with such high expectations. Overall, it could be a great experience with some improvements.

Overall, this hotel has its charms, boasting a lovely boutique feel with warm service and a great pool. However, the noisy location and outdated rooms detracted from the experience. I enjoyed the free breakfast, but need to mention that the room condition was not ideal. If you keep your expectations in check regarding the atmosphere and room quality, you might find it a good value for a getaway.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is well-located just a short walk from the bustling old town, surrounded by great restaurants and bars. The staff was incredibly warm and attentive, making us feel right at home. However, the room could have used some maintenance and a bit more cleanliness. The rooftop terrace was a definite highlight but could use better lighting at night for safety.
