shower head

Everything about the stay impressed me. The room was cozy and well-decorated. The experience felt personal, with unique touches, made it nice.

The shower head in room 'tata' could use some improvement, but it's not a dealbreaker. It would be nice to see local rates considered, as the pricing seemed more tailored toward international travelers.

Home away from home!

We had the best time! The staff was so friendly, it was like we were chilling with friends. Our beautiful room was cozy and perfect. Plus, the in-room breakfast was a total treat! Only thing was the Wi-Fi could be better, but honestly, who needs it when you're surrounded by such good vibes?

Highly recommend for a unique experience

The breakfast was a feast,, I ordered multiple dishes thinking small portions, but they served big plates. The staff had this great touch, they left a cookie and water for me after dinner, totally felt them caring about my stay.

It wasn't exactly cheap,, but worth it for the experience.

warm welcome

Highly recommend for history lovers

I stayed here for a night, and the staff really nailed it with their warm welcome. The breakfast was out of this world, I ordered eggs benedict and it was huge and delicious. The coffee was super, not to mention, they remembered my meal preferences and allergies which is rare.

It wasn't precisely inexpensive but worth every cent.
