While some public spaces await renovation, its location, though a walk from the center, offers bus access. Overall, it's a promising option for budget-conscious travelers.”

amazing hotel stay!

helpful staffroom cleanlinessexcellent fooduncomfortable chairs
I traveled with alfa travel for five days and i must say, the staff were helpful! the comfort and cleanliness of the rooms and lounges were superb. I felt right at home. the food was also excellent. I especially loved the welcome from the assistant manager, the speedy check-in, and the tea and coffee available at reception!
I found that the chairs in the entertainment room weren't very comfortable. It kept me from fully enjoying the entertainment.
