I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, right on the canal with lovely restaurants nearby. The rooms offer a charming view and come with all necessary amenities, plus the service was top-notch. However, the receptionist was not very helpful, which was a letdown. Overall, a great value for the money.
