My stay at Gurda Tango Boutique Hotel was a good surprise that blended warmth and comfort in a trendy location. The personal service was really good, even though the area felt a bit chaotic at times. While the dining options could have been better, the ambiance really made up for it and had its own charm.

The hotel had a quaint common area to enjoy, but the amenities weren’t particularly luxurious. The ambiance was nice, and the free Wi-Fi was a plus, but overall the facilities felt a bit minimal for a boutique hotel.

My stay at Gurda Tango Boutique Hotel was a mix of good and not-so-good experiences. While the service from the staff was truly really good, my room was quite small and initially lacked windows, which made it feel cramped. The breakfast was good, offering a good variety, but the price for my accommodation felt a bit steep considering the room size and lack of natural light.
