Wonderful Stay!

textile boutiquesinteresting shopseasy accesschair noise

The hotel was located very close to textile boutiques. Many interesting shops were also nearby. Lalele Square provided a spot for walks. The main attractions were easily accessible from this location.

Our room was on the fifth floor. Breakfast was served directly above on the terrace. From 7 AM, moving chairs created a lot of noise.
