8.0/10

The hotel is conveniently located just outside the town area and is easily accessible via the regular bus line. The rooms are spacious and modern, offering comfortable beds for a relaxing stay. The service is top-notch with helpful staff providing excellent tours/ticket assistance. However, the dining options are limited to Spanish dishes only. The facilities are well-maintained, but the price could be more aligned with the value delivered.
