“What struck me is the staff's commitment; one solo traveler recounted being personally guided around town and assisted in avoiding tourist traps, creating a truly immersive experience. The location places you near the city's pulse, with clean, if modest, rooms providing a solid value. I think it's a rare find when affordability aligns with genuine, attentive service.”
