Location is awesome. Few steps away from St, Basilica and a lot of good restaurants. The only thing I didn’t like was the bath towels are limited. We requested for extra bath towels but they called us back after few minutes in our room and asking questions why do we need more towels and mentioned that bath towels are meant for five people but there were only 2 of us in the room. It was so hot during our stay. Of course, we need to take a shower and refresh everyday. That’s the only reason I put 4 stars but other than that their. suite room is pretty big and clean hotel.
