The hotel is in a decent location, but I found the rooms to be a bit outdated and small for a triple room. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my stay more enjoyable. However, the residual cigarette smell in the room was a significant downside. The dining options were quite good, and overall, I felt it offered fair value for money.
