Hotel is centrally located, easy to find. The room was clean, simply furnished; bed was comfortable. The reception was friendly. Shops and restaurants were all around. The hotel is on a busy street; parking is a bit difficult to find.

Bit disappointed

To be positive about the hotel, the receptionist was helpful, the room was spacious, it had eating and drinking facilities and it was in a good location. However parking was not close by and the bed was too soft for our comfort.

Staff very helpful. Language a bit of a barrier but that is my fault. Room very clean and well appointed. Furniture basic and dated but still very functional. The included bathroom was very modern and clean. Walking distance to all amenities and beautiful vistas from windows. I would stay again and recommend.

A fantastic location and a beautiful view of the mountains from just outside the door. My room was lovely. If there’s nobody around when you first arrive, don’t worry- just wait a minute or two and someone will be along to help you. Very easy to check in and out. I had 2 nights here and really glad I stayed here.
