Very nice hotel with good location. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Only 5 minutes walk to Metro and also good communication by bus. The hotel is old, but very nice. Very nice people working there. We had an apartment with kitchen and one bedroom. We slept four persons there, two on the sofa bed (it was bad). The apartment was very clean. The hotel has also a little fitness room, perfect. We really liked this hotel and will recommend it highly.
