The property is a short walking distance to the train station, there is a huge, beautiful market with a wide range of food choices and a grocery store within a block of the hotel. Restaurants, shopping, tourist attractions are all within walking distance, we never called a taxi or Uber the 3 days we were there. The hotel does not have air conditioning, the room windows open and fans are available, with the fans on the street and restaurant noise from below is lessened. There is a cozy hour in the afternoon where you can get a wine, beer or soft drink compliments of the hotel.
