I had a wonderful stay with a few minor hiccups. The hotel is in a great location, really close to the city center and all the popular spots. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but they could use a few more amenities to be perfect. The service was friendly, which made the experience much better. One downside was that the dining options could’ve offered more variety.
