Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were clean and provided comfort, but lacked privacy due to curtains in the passage area. Ants in the bathroom and draftiness were minor issues. The service was mixed with helpful staff but some negative experiences. The location was convenient for some but had drawbacks like being away from the main areas. Dining options varied from good to sub-par, with shortages and unimpressive quality. Facilities were average with some room for improvement.
I had quite a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were cold and had a strange smell, probably from the maintenance room nearby. On the positive side, the service was excellent, with helpful staff who promptly addressed any issues. The location was highly convenient, offering easy access to nearby attractions. However, the dining experience was a letdown, lacking variety and quality in the offerings.
The hotel rooms are old and far from the lobby, located on the first floor for convenience. The motel-style rooms make access to the restaurant, pool, and indoor pool difficult. Some maintenance issues like a clogged toilet affected the stay.
