    My favorite part is that no matter how hot the weather is, the hotel is always cool, perhaps because of the high location, and the view from the balcony is nice.

    I liked the comfort, the really good reception, the views, spaces and affordableness. All clean, well-equiped kitchen and quite silent nights of sleep. There is a nice bar upstairs also if you up for some drinks.
