Room was terrific, brilliant, and staff was glorious! Charming location, at a short distance from a historic palace. Extraordinary breakfast with real coffee. The pool bar was spacious and the drinks were relaxing.

We took a double room and it had a mini-fridge-bar, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV. Not far from the downtown, 5 minutes on foot. We ordered lunch at Va mo La, located right next to the venue.
