Nomado Boutique Hotel
Great room and amenities! They can take breakfast to your room! The only down side is the karaoke nights last until midnight. If you are a night owl, I totally recommend it

Nice place with great staff. My only complaint (which is common in this part of the world) is that I could smell the drain in my room.
