Hotel Details

Location

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Request a lower-floor room to avoid the many stairs, as there is no lift.

  • 02

    Arrive with a charged phone and check your WhatsApp for the gate code - the entrance is a side alley, not the main street.

  • 03

    Plan to store luggage before check-in or after checkout for easier exploration.

  • 04

    Confirm early check-in availability if arriving before 15:00.
