Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were efficient with a good bathroom, but a bit small for two people with luggage. The service was excellent, with helpful and courteous staff. The location was convenient with nearby amenities, though not very close to the city center. The dining experience was good, but they could improve breakfast planning. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for enhancement.
The hotel was clean and quiet, with spacious rooms and a nice bathroom. The service was exceptionally helpful, but they couldn't accommodate a late check-out request. The location was perfect with easy access to the city center and many dining options. The breakfast was excellent, though the noise level at night was a bit bothersome.
The hotel had very clean rooms lacking character and attention to detail. The small kitchen area was not stocked, and the soundproofing was poor, making it easy to hear noise from neighboring rooms. The service was friendly but seemed overworked at times, affecting food replenishment and table clearing. The location was brilliant, with a variety of bars and restaurants nearby and accessible transport options to the city center. The dining experience offered loads of choices to suit all tastes. The facilities were adequate, catering to basic needs.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were nicer and comfortable, but they were very dark and had a lot of dust, making it uncomfortable at night. It was also a bit noisy due to its location above the entrance. However, the service was friendly and helpful. The location was convenient for exploring the city. The dining was good, although with some limitations. Overall, it had its ups and downs.
