spacious roomperfect linen
The rooms are spacious. Beds, pillows and linens are perfect. I liked that there was a nice refrigerator with a separate freezer section in my room.
The walls are thin, and i could hear some noise from other guests.

The courtyard included many palm trees. I noticed MANY lemon trees laden with lemons! My room opened onto this lush courtyard. The onsite restaurant proved excellent.
My room felt a little dated.
