The location is great to all shopping places...Rooms are clean and good, shower room is little conjuested...break fast options are limited. The biggest problem is of not having the restaurant for dinner and hence need to order from outside.But still i found it good place to stay.

The property is in a central location with lots of places for dining, shopping and site visit. The room is a good size and clean. The free breakfast was a plus and it was good each day. Outside of the hotel is very active with locals vendors so you have to be more observant. Overall it was a good experience.
