"The room was very warm and inviting. We booked the suite with private pool. The view was beautiful and even though there was a lot of activity on the street, the room was quiet. We loved that the hotel was walking distance to the walled city and many restaurants and nightlife. The restaurant is under construction so we didn’t take advantage of the food services, but that did not impact our stay. We would stay here again."
