Unique Hotel by Unique Owners

Overall experience was great. Staff friendly and helpful, the rooms are very clean and well taken care of during my stay. One thing that could be better is breakfast, there were not so many options for non-diary food and or milk, and only one choice of coffee. We loved the pool area to cool down, and the city itself was beautiful. I will definitely go back there if I can.

Εξαιρετικό

Οι χώροι του ξενοδοχείου ήταν ανακαινισμένοι και πολύ προσεγμένοι και η αυλή πολύ όμορφη. Νόστιμο φαγητό και ευγενικό προσωπικό.
