The hotel is in a prime location in the heart of the historic district, making it very convenient for exploring. The rooms are stylish with high ceilings, though the bathrooms are on the smaller side. The service offers a variety of useful amenities like car hire and tours. The dining, although limited to nachos, adds a nice touch. However, it lacks some facilities one might expect.

The hotel is located in the heart of the historic district with stunning views and gorgeous architecture. The rooms boast ceilings around 3 to 4 meters high, all designed in the same exquisite style on the main level. However, the dining options were limited, and the Wi-Fi had an additional charge. Despite that, the friendly staff and great location made my stay memorable.
