The hotel provides comfortable rooms above the lively traffic circle for an affordable rate. The service is outstanding with attentive and polite staff who go above and beyond. The location, slightly outside the center, is still convenient and within walking distance to downtown sights. The dining options, though average, offer varied and well-prepared meals. The facilities are well-maintained and satisfying.
