Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location was ideal for us, and it provided a comfortable stay, but it definitely needs some updating. The service was exceptional, especially given the circumstances, and the dining experience was enjoyable despite a minor menu discrepancy. However, there were cleanliness issues in the stairwell that left a negative impression.
The hotel had spacious rooms that were a bit dated but more than enough for us, suitable for families. The service was friendly and helpful, although a bit slow at the bar. The location was good for our needs and easy to access, but could have been closer to restaurants and bars. The dining was good overall, with some minor disappointments. The hotel offered facilities that met our basic needs.
The hotel is ideally located for our stay, very comfortable and clean overall. The staff are friendly and attentive; however, there are areas needing improvement like the dining options. The price is fair, considering the value offered and the inconvenience of dusty stair slats.
