The hotel built long ago and for 5 star it should be renovate, the furniture are very faded colour. The public area is nice, it seems weird to pay for cappuccino at breakfast. The bed was very comfort. So it is fine hotel but for 5 star someone has to invest for quiet total room renovation.

This hotel is NOT a 5 star hotel. It’s old, the rooms smells bad and the staff is very impolite. Not coming back…
