The staff is amazing. In a country where cell phones are stolen. I left my phone on Tango Dinner Show bus and the staff worked relentlessly to see I got it back. Through the shift changes. I’m incredibly grateful. I checked in when I arrived early. I highly recommend the hotel. Great continental breakfast. Walking distance to many interesting places.
