We booked a room with valley view. Wow! Amazing balcony especially at night when the sun set and there was a breeze. The front desk staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We tried to drive to the hotel but gave up. Park inP2. It’s about a 10 minute walk uphill from there but once there you are in the center of it all. Both location wise but height wise. You’re at the top of the town. Plenty of restaurants, bars, and shops. Highly recommend.

This place is at the center of everything, that being said, to get there is a hike! We parked outside the city walls and walked to the hotel, since we spent only one night we only carried a backpack and we left everything in the car. Dragging a suitcase it’s not a smart move. The hotel Is beautiful and we got a room with a wonderful view. Bed was comfortable and everything spotless. We really enjoyed the convenience of being able to go in and out to the center as we needed a break from walking. Super recommended!
