The hotel is situated on a steep hill, which makes for a great view but could be challenging for some. My room was spacious and decorated nicely, offering a comfortable stay. The location is excellent, being close to the city center and various dining options. However, the Wi-Fi was a bit slow and not included, which was a slight disappointment for the overall experience.
