Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The room was spacious with tall ceilings and a comfortable bed, albeit a bit hard. The service was excellent, and the location couldn't have been better, right across from the monastery and close to all the main attractions. The dining experience, while not the best, was satisfactory. Overall, a good value for the money.
