Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms, with friendly staff at the front desk. However, there were some issues with service regarding pricing inconsistencies. The location is convenient for access to nearby attractions. Dining options were limited, but the overall value for money was satisfactory.
Staying at this hotel was a real treat. The rooms are spacious, clean, and way better than your average hotel room at this price point. The location is amazing, offering both tranquility and easy access to various dining and shopping options. However, there were some unfortunate incidents with the management that marred an otherwise pleasant stay.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were clean, quiet, and very comfortable, but unfortunately, the air conditioning completely broke down during a heatwave, making it unbearable inside. The kitchenette was a nice addition, but the cleanliness of the dishes was questionable. The hotel needs some TLC to address these issues.
