Would I Stay Here? Yes.

Staff Speaks English? Yes.

Comments: Everything is nice about this hotel: brand new (opened Spring 2004), clean, nicely decorated. And though it is a bit more expensive than Petra Hotel (located below this one in the same building) I would definitely prefer to stay here. I love the atmosphere!
