24-Hour Buffet Delight

“The 24-hour self-service breakfast bar was a fantastic feature during my stay. I enjoyed an array of fresh fruits, pastries, and even hot items like meats and omelets, available before noon. The best part was the well-stocked drinks chiller with bottled water, fizzy drinks, and beers, which I found extremely convenient for both mornings and late-night snacks!” view full review

Charming Room Ambiance

“My stay in the double room was very comfortable despite its size. The room had all the necessary amenities, including air conditioning, a microwave, a small fridge, and a safe. The décor was opulent with lots of pinks and gold, contributing to the hotel's grand atmosphere. While it didn't offer a view, the lovely breakfast room with its charming balconies more than made up for it.” view full review
