I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern with a lovely balcony offering a great view from level 2, but the price was on the higher side. The service was exceptional with quick room service and convenient laundry facilities. The location was superb, very close to the city center and a fantastic Super Market. However, the lack of dining options and slightly higher price were minor drawbacks.

The hotel is conveniently located just outside the center of town, making it easy to explore nearby shops and the port before traveling to another island. The rooms are comfortable, offering a good view from the balcony and a spacious big bed. The service is top-notch with various amenities available. However, the dining options are limited with only hot dishes served, and additional charges apply for some services.
