This was a wonderful place. The room was large and comfortable, the bathrooms were clean and spacious, and the kitchen area was useful and perfect for our needs. We were able to cook dinners and breakfasts during our stay, which was wonderful. But what really set this place apart was Mario, the manager. He takes very good care of the place, gets his guests settled in seamlessly, and equips them with a map marked out with the easiest ways to get to sites, supermarkets, restaurants, and anything else you might want. Most importantly, his friendliness creates a social and relaxing atmosphere in the shared kitchen space. We spent our evenings cooking and eating dinner in his company and the company of other travelers who were drawn in similarly. If this isn't your style, don't worry, it is very easy to keep to yourself in your private room as well. We loved the space.
