The hotel is perfectly situated, just a short walk from the metro station, in a lovely residential area offering a safe and convenient stay. The rooms are ideal for business travelers, well-furnished with a quiet ambiance, although the additional cost for internet access was a downside. The service, particularly by Pedro, was exceptional and accommodating, despite a disappointing breakfast arrangement. The location offers easy access to various amenities like cafes and supermarkets, away from the bustling tourist spots. The dining experience, with its steady continental breakfast selection, was satisfying with a charming courtyard setting.

I never had an issue getting a table in the dining area, and the room was spacious with a super comfortable bed. However, there were some moments when the staff started talking amongst themselves about guests' behaviors.

However, the rooms are of adequate size with a nice view of beautiful purple blossoms in June/July.
