I absolutely loved the hotel's location, as it was nestled in the bustling alleyways but close to the waterfront, making it easy to explore. The staff was incredibly friendly, with one receptionist even helping us navigate the local transportation to get a true taste of the island. The cleanliness of the rooms was top-notch, and I appreciated the cozy atmosphere. Breakfast was a highlight too, with a solid buffet and made-to-order omelets that really kick-started my day.
