Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to be quite central, walking distance from both the train station and the Corniche, which was convenient. However, the room was too small, even for a single room, making it feel cramped. The dining experience offered tasty and clean meals with a good variety of options at a reasonable price.
The hotel is in a decent location, not actually inside the hotel but in an apartment block a bit further down the street on the 13th floor. The rooms are clean, and the facilities are in good condition, though nothing extraordinary.
