We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The owner was absolutely perfect—he spoke excellent English, was very welcoming, and genuinely friendly. Our room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable, with both a bathtub and a separate shower. Breakfast was varied and different every day, which we really appreciated.

Friendly and Hospitable Hosts: The highlight of my stay was definitely the hosts, who were incredibly welcoming and attentive. They were patient, sincere, and always willing to answer any questions I had. As locals with deep knowledge of the area, they offered professional and thoughtful suggestions, from sightseeing to local cuisine, which made my trip even more enjoyable and seamless. This was truly the most pleasant solo trip I've ever had. The hotel provides not only a comfortable place to stay but also a warm, home-like atmosphere that gives a strong sense of belonging. I will definitely come back and visit again! Highly recommended for solo travelers, and it would be great for families or friends too! Excellent Location: The hotel is very close to the ancient town, within walking distance of many attractions, and the area is quiet and convenient. It's also very easy to get around with carhailing apps, making transportation a breeze—ideal for travelers who enjoy exploring freely. Well-Equipped and Cozy Amenities: The hotel has a wonderfully warm and modern decor that truly feels like home. The room is fully equipped with everything you might need, from comfortable bedding to a functional kitchen and spotless bathroom, making it a very convenient place to stay. I especially appreciated the thoughtful little touches that make a solo traveler feel well taken care of.

It’s an amazing apartment, clean and well-equipped with great view in a quiet but convenient location. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great during our stay but the cozy tea room made it so much better!

The location was ideal right in the old city on a quiet street. The building was an authentic old city dwelling. Lovely courtyard collected the sun in the afternoon. The owner was very helpful with information about the city and its sites. At 9am each morning the owner made each guest a coffee. Room was large and comfortable, all amenities provided. Clean towels each day. Very good stay. Would stay again without hesitation.
