"This year, in April, my wife and I spent two weeks at the hotel. The hotel has an ideal location, right in the heart of Tapovan, making it close to everything, yet still very quiet on a side street. The hotel also has a very nice restaurant, which we recommend ordering from – you can not only enjoy delicious food there but also admire the beautiful views from the rooftop terrace. The hotel room was spacious and very comfortable, including the bathroom – everything worked perfectly, everything...
