Everything was perfect. The hotel is recently renovated in a very modern and though cosy style. The beds are comfortable and the breakfast is wonderful. I felt at home from the moment I entered the room. There are various nice restaurants in the same structure which I liked very much, as I didn’t have to take a taxi to go for dinner. Very safe area. I will definitely come back.
