Reviews and Ratings
When we arrived, the room was a little hot, but it cooled off quickly. It was clean, the bed was comfortable, even though it was right across from the ice machine and elevator, which was a bit noisy. However, the lighting was poor, not enough outlets, and the bed was uncomfortable. Unfortunately, the pool was closed for maintenance on a Saturday.
The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms, friendly and helpful service, and a very good location close to downtown. However, the dining experience was a bit underwhelming with limited breakfast options. The value for money was decent.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very clean and spacious, but the lack of enough bedding and a persistent mildew odor from the hallway and adjacent rooms were a downside. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff, and a nice warm breakfast with delicious coffee. The location was good, but it looked barren and could have been handled more appropriately. Overall, a stay with some highs and lows.
