Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is a decent choice for a short stay, though the rooms lack storage and are a bit worn. Using a fan for cooling may not be ideal during sleep, but the overall comfort is passable. Service had its ups and downs, from being ignored upon arrival to being moved to a better room without charge. The location meets basic needs but may not offer much privacy. Dining was a mixed experience with delays and unexpected charges, although nearby cafes are plentiful for alternatives.
The hotel needs a decent makeover in the rooms, but they were clean and tidy. Some inconveniences like small rooms for 4 adults and inconvenient light switches were noted. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and helpful with directions. The location is convenient with easy access to shops and eateries, though the dining options were overpriced. Room service and other amenities were available.
The hotel offers well-appointed and comfortable rooms with plenty of towels and modern amenities. The off-street parking is convenient. The service was accommodating and friendly, though a limited in-room dining option was noted. The location is accessible to various attractions but experienced noise disturbances from other guests. Dining options were limited, but there are nearby alternatives. The facilities are serviceable, with potential for improvement in some areas.
