Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms could use some upgrades, but they do have excellent showers. The service varies from not very professional to incredibly helpful and friendly. The location is ideal for various activities, and the dining experience ranges from disorganized to having a good choice of options.
My stay at the hotel was lovely. The room was clean, spacious, and had a fantastic view of the courtyard with beautiful flower boxes. It was a quiet and comfortable place to cool off at night.
I found the hotel to be conveniently located in a very central area with plenty of nearby attractions. The rooms were quiet this time around with a nice sofa and dressing table, but there was some noise that could have been better managed. The service had its ups and downs, with mixed experiences from different staff members. The dining options were good, with a varied selection, though there were a few letdowns. Overall, a pleasant stay with room for improvement.
The hotel offers clean rooms with a male toilet nearby on the same corridor, a great courtyard, and hot food. The top location of the building is a plus, but there are no previous amenities. Friendly service despite the chaos with efforts to ensure a great stay. Convenient for local attractions with no high parking fees. The central location is a standout feature, although some issues with the manageress's attitude were noted. Dining was great but with some service delays and lack of staff. Overall, a mixed experience with positives and negatives.
