Spacious and Comfortable

I had the pleasure of staying in one of the rooms in the Green Annex, and it was one of the best rooms I've seen in the city center. The space was bright, airy, and modern, featuring a nice balcony overlooking the square. The furnishings were comfortable, ensuring I had a relaxing stay with no noise from outside.
