We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. Everything was spot on. The hotel was extremely clean and contemporary. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. The location was perfect, being on one of the city's vibrant arteries and close to the best restaurant in this city, Pompette. It was also not far from the city center, with a bus stop right outside the hotel that took us there in about 10 minutes. The breakfast was outstanding, with a wide variety of choices and freshly squeezed orange juice. this hotel provided excellent cleanliness, facilities, transportation options, a great location, and a delicious breakfast.
