Grandi by Center Hotels
This is a nice hotel in a good location, a bit quieter location, but still within 15 min walk to many attractions shops and restaurants. I wouldn't call it a luxury hotel but it is very nice, professional and clean with friendly staff. I would recommend.

Center Hotels Plaza
A good hotel for the price. Great location, slightly confusing layout, friendly staff, large lockers to store your luggage, and a basic, comfortable room.
