The suite was spacious, but not cozy, with a big bed, a small fridge, and a nice bathroom. However, it felt a bit dated and was noisy on weekends. The service was amazing and very helpful, especially from the restaurant and reception staff. The location is excellent in the city center, near the old town and main streets. The dining options had a wide selection but were of average quality.
