The only thing I will say is it’s not ideal with guests with larger tattoos, the hotel will only provide 2 covers per guest, you can purchase more from the near by Don Quijote but a hassle. Otherwise it was a very comfortable stay

A fantastic place to visit. So much history and the temples are just awesome. Recommend a day tour if visiting for a short time but I am looking forward to exploring on my own and spending more time at some sites next time.

Plan carefully as many places seemed to be under restoration. Also, it was considerably mor crowded with ( mainly mainland Chinese) tourists than our last visit
