Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were well maintained, clean, and fresh, but they felt smaller than expected. The service was hospitable but could have been more supportive in certain areas. The location was convenient for visiting the prominent places of the city, but it was isolated from activity centers. The dining options were limited during my stay.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were generally better than those on the 3rd floor, especially with the swimming pool view on the second floor which had a nice balcony. The staff was friendly, but the food quality could be improved.
I had a great stay at the hotel. The rooms were very spacious and clean, making my stay extremely comfortable. The staff members were also very friendly and cooperative, always ready to assist. However, the location was a bit isolated, far from the activity centers and marketplaces, which was a minor drawback. The dining experience was enjoyable with good food quality, though a bit repetitive at times.
