Clean room, great staff, nice restaurants, very comfy bed. Perfect other than two minor things - hot water is from a source with sulfur so has a smell to it, and the curtains were not blackout. When visiting in summer and it's light all evening this does mean that the room is a bit light for sleeping. Bring a sleeping mask!

A nice basic hotel. The hotel was not the newest but it was clean. Monst of the time there was nobody at the front desk (at least in the evening and morning when I tried to ask for directions). There was a decent restaurant inside the hotel. Breakfast was ok.
