Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful, with spacious and comfortable suites and a very strategic location. The overall design of the hotel felt a bit old-fashioned, though.
The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms, although they could be cleaner and more modern. The staff is friendly and helpful, but there is room for improvement in service quality. The location is convenient for exploring local eateries and shopping, although the property itself needs upgrades. The dining options are decent but could be more diverse. Overall, a decent value for money with some areas needing attention.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, although not entirely cleaned up initially, turned out to be spacious and clean. The service was average, with some instances of impoliteness observed. The location was very convenient, with amenities and shopping complexes within walking distance. The dining experience was below expectations, but the facilities were decent.
The hotel rooms are acceptable for the price paid despite being slightly old and dusty. The bed is not as comfortable as expected, but the stay overall is okay. The service needs improvement in terms of explanations and attention to detail. The location is convenient with easy access to various attractions, but major upgrading is required. The dining experience is reasonable with decent options at a fair price.
The hotel was a great value for money, but the rooms were dusty and had 2 single beds instead of a double as requested. The service was friendly with room for improvement, especially in training. The location was convenient for food and touring. The dining experience was below expectations with limited food selection. The facilities need some maintenance but overall decent.
