Fantastic Experience in the Old Town!

historic building rooftop terrace montenegro option really good view
I found a fine historic building, almost like a beautiful art gallery! The breakfast included a Montenegro option, so I enjoyed local specialities! The rooftop terrace gave me really good views of the mountains, and Dino and Philip created a nice dinner experience! I greatly appreciated that there was an elevator for our luggage.
The designers decided to put a completely transparent door in the toilet, which I found inconvenient and impractical.
