I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, enjoying its excellent location and comfortable rooms. The staff were friendly and professional, which made my experience even better. However, I did find the dining options a bit lacking, particularly when it came to breakfast. Overall, it's a good value for money, but some areas could use improvement.
