"Hotel staff were very accommodating and friendly. You can have breakfast at the on-site resteraunt and there is a bar downstairs that is easy to acess and staff were very friendly there.A small lounge is also right next the bar. Rooms were very nice and clean, shower was also very clean. The room has a mini bar with lots of different options. The hotel is just a ten minute walk to the city center and the Black Church. There are plenty of resteraunts there or you can walk a short distance to others in the area. Uber will drive you to the hotel from the airport for around 8-10 US. I found both Uber drivers to be very friendly. The hotel is on the same side as the cable car going up the mountain and is anout a 20 minute walk. Lovely stay and will stay here again when I return."
