Terrace, solarium, and sun deck
The outdoor space here is a genuine differentiator at this price level. There is a terrace with outdoor furniture, a dedicated sun deck, and a solarium, plus beach chairs and umbrellas — an unusual setup for a one-star city hotel.
Rooms built for comfort
Every room has air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, a private bathroom with shower, and soundproofing. Linens, towels, and a hairdryer are all included. Wardrobes, clothes racks, and a desk keep longer stays practical.
Family-ready layout
Three of the four room types include a sofa bed alongside the full bed, meaning families or small groups can sleep comfortably without booking two separate rooms. The Triple Room also has its own private terrace.
