My stay at the Mirilayon Hotel was pleasant but had its drawbacks. The rooms were quite small and a bit outdated, though they were clean and comfortable enough for a short stay. The hotel's location was fantastic for exploring the city, and I particularly enjoyed the diversity of the breakfast options, though I wish there were more fresh juices. The staff's limited English made communication a bit challenging at times, but they were friendly and did their best to assist.
