Heiss Hotel By Jalo
The breakfast was a little limited but fresh. We requested facecloths the second morning and was told there was no face cloths. However, we had 2 facecloths placed in room on the last night of our stay. The property is very clean staff is very friendly. Its a beautiful hotel. I enjoyed my stay!
