I had a mixed experience at this hotel. Although the rooms were really small and the air conditioning was lacking, they were clean and had everything I needed. The service was great, very welcoming and professional, but not very service-oriented. The location was superb, within walking distance to many attractions and a train station. The dining experience was okay, with a decent spread but lacking some options. Overall, it was a good value for money stay.

My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms, while plain and simple with grey walls and ceilings, had everything you would expect from this style of hotel. The bathroom was nice, and the beds were comfortable, providing a quiet and cozy space for a good night's sleep. However, the lack of decorations on the walls made the room feel a bit dull.
