I had a lovely stay at the hotel, which offered a fantastic and spacious room with a breathtaking view. The friendly staff contributed to a warm atmosphere, but I wish the dining options were a bit more varied. The facilities were impressive, especially the pool area, but the Wi-Fi wasn’t included, which was a bit disappointing.

I had a pretty good experience at this hotel, with clean and spacious rooms that were quite comfortable. The staff were welcoming and seemed genuinely eager to help. The neighborhood was convenient and close to various attractions, but the dining options left a bit to be desired, especially breakfast choices. Overall, it offers decent value for money, although there's room for improvement in the food department.
