Opt for a Room with a View

Consider Low Season Visits

If you prefer quieter surroundings, consider visiting during the low season in January when the area is less crowded.

Consider Pet-Friendly Rooms

The hotel allows pets on request, with charges that may apply. If you're traveling with a pet, it's advisable to inquire about the availability of pet-friendly rooms and any associated fees.
