Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms, but may not be ideal for new couples due to translucent bathrooms. The friendly staff provides a welcoming atmosphere. The location is convenient for reaching nearby attractions, although not directly near the metro station. The dining experience is satisfactory but could improve with more fresh fruits. The facilities are well-maintained.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of great and not so great experiences. The rooms were beautifully decorated with a pleasant ensuite bathroom, but the service could be deceiving when it comes to sightseeing information. The location was quiet, yet conveniently close to the city center, making it a good option. The dining experience was not outstanding, but the hotel offers a decent snack menu. Overall, a stay with some ups and downs.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the service was amazing and of utmost value, the room lacked some utilities and was affected by outside lights throughout the night. The location was good, but the dining was more or less terrible.
