Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with breakfast included; however, the bathroom quality is extremely poor and the rooms are located on a lower level. The service is average, and the location is excellent being in the historic old town. The dining experience is limited to wood-fired pizzas. The facilities are basic.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the room had an extremely poor quality bathroom, the fact that breakfast was included and the bed was comfortable added some value to the stay despite being on a lower level. The service was decent, but some aspects could have been improved. The location was perfect as it was so close to everything, yet there were some drawbacks. The dining experience, with fried fish included, had its ups and downs. The facilities were adequate, but could use some enhancements.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with a poor quality bathroom but includes a delicious breakfast.
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms have extremely poor quality bathrooms, but the bed is comfortable, and breakfast is included. However, being on a lower level might not appeal to everyone.
I stayed at this hotel located in the heart of the city, which was so close to everything. The rooms were cozy, but the bathroom quality was really poor. On the bright side, breakfast was included. Service was top-notch in all areas, with attentive staff and convenient amenities. As for the location, it was so convenient being right in the center of town. The temporary restaurant felt a bit off, though. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option, this could be it, but be prepared for the bathroom quality.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with a nice breakfast included, but the bathroom quality is subpar. The service is excellent in all areas, providing a range of amenities. The beautiful setting and the temporary restaurant add to the attractiveness of the location. Dining features delightful pho but has limited options. Overall, a mixed experience with some noteworthy positive and negative aspects.
