The location is very good and safe. Opposite is the Independence Museum and a five-minute walk is the Independence Palace. It is very hygienic and has complete facilities. Many local Americans stay there.

I stayed at the hotel with my son. This was my second stay at the hotel, having stayed there last year. Overall it was pretty good, I would give it 4 1/2 stars. The breakfast items are varied and plentiful, and the breakfast attendant, Sandra, was very polite. There are many channels on the TV, and the room (king bed with sofa, street view) was spacious, if a bit cluttered with furniture. My son enjoyed the afternoon cookies! My main complaint is that housekeeping seems to be a bit lax with cleaning the bathroom. When I checked in, there were a few hairs in and around the shower. The housekeeper(s) also did not clean all of the hair out of the shower or off the floor each day while I was staying. I picked it up myself, but they may need a reminder to check this when cleaning. As for noise, I heard music each night around 10 PM that lasted for a while. I don’t know if it was from a guest or outside. I understand that there is city noise, especially with a street view room, but it was a bit annoying. Overall it was a pretty good stay. The front desk agents I interacted with were polite and helpful. I would likely stay there again.

Great location to get around the city. Staff were very pleasant. Rooms were very nice. Wine tasting and cookies and tea were a nice touch.

The hotel is in a great location if you want to be in the Old City. However, parking is around the corner and the hotel did not have one of its passes the first night we stayed there, so we did not get the discount. There is a great variety of food at the complimentary breakfast. The main drawback is the small room.
