Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated in a good location, albeit near a construction site that might cause disturbances. The rooms are neat and well-maintained, but the constant noise from the construction site can be a drawback. The service is friendly and accommodating, although there might be attempts to sell extra services. The hotel's location is convenient for sightseeing but impacted by the nearby construction noise. The dining options are satisfactory, though the starting time may not suit all guests. Overall, the hotel offers value for money but has some room for improvement.
The hotel's location is excellent, situated in the middle of a bustling area with convenient access to shopping centers and restaurants. However, the lack of natural light in the room and noise disturbances from the service area at 4 am were notable downsides. The service was somewhat slow and unhelpful, requiring intervention for resolution. The dining experience was decent but had some areas for improvement.
