The hotel offers small rooms with luxurious facilities and toiletries but lacks spaciousness. The fresh towels were a nice touch, even though the double bed made the room feel cramped. The service was top-notch with excellent housekeeping and a delightful welcome drink. The location couldn't be better, being so close to the vibrant town center with plenty of dining options. The dining experience was satisfactory with good-quality ingredients, although the rate could have included more options. The facilities were adequate but not expansive.
