    The room was very spacious and just around the corner from the Palace. I like that it’s a quiet area but others may prefer to stay closer to shops, markets and restaurants.

    Really enjoyed the pool and it was a nice big room with a washer dryer which was so nice. The breakfast probably wasn’t amazing but it was still fine for our stay. There were plenty of other local options as well. The staff were very friendly
