Good stay

The room was spacious, had ac and in the corridor you could get chilled water. Fluffy pillows and comfortable bed. The café bar was nice both inside and outside by the water. Breakfast was ok, didn't impress me. Good location in the city centre and was far from the bus station or the bus stop for Bus Feda.
