Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is excellent, close to the city center with great dining options nearby. The rooms are comfortable, but the bathroom was a bit of a letdown initially. The service was friendly and welcoming, although the staff's knowledge about the area was lacking. The dining experience was overpriced for a continental breakfast. The hotel offers convenient facilities, but there were minor disturbances due to street noise.
The hotel is conveniently located near public transportation, with spacious and clean rooms, although a strong smell of burnt toast from early morning was a downside. The staff was professional, friendly, and accommodating, making our stay pleasant and comfortable.
The hotel offers spacious, bright, and clean rooms with very comfortable pillows, but has a strong smell of damp. The staff is friendly and helpful, especially during unexpected situations. The location is perfect for easy access to food delivery services and public transportation. However, the dining experience was disappointing with limited choices.
