Reviews and Ratings
I had a relaxing stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious, making it perfect for both work and leisure. The staff were very helpful and friendly. However, the location, while not exactly in the center, was still convenient and well-connected to key attractions.
The hotel is well-located in a good area of town, offering comfortable rooms with a separate living area. While the rooms showed signs of wear and occasionally smelled like cigarettes, they were quite spacious. The service was exceptional with helpful and friendly staff, while the dining experience varied from average to exceptional. The location, though not central, was convenient and within walking distance to various amenities.
The hotel offers modern and spacious rooms that smell clean and pleasant, located in the upper floors. However, some areas look a little tired, with the shower over the bath possibly indicating the last refurbishment. The service encountered here is professional and welcoming, with convenient arrangements with taxi drivers for transportation needs. The hotel's location near the older center of town provides easy access to coffee shops and restaurants, despite feeling a bit outdated in design. The dining options are above average, offering a great selection of quality food. Overall, while the facilities are commendable, there are areas that could benefit from updating.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and the A/C worked well, although they seemed a bit dated with showers over the bath. The service was courteous overall, but some staff members seemed to collude with taxi drivers to inflate tour rates. The location was good, not right in the center but within a 20-minute walk to restaurants and attractions. Dining was satisfactory with a variety of selections to choose from.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while clean, are a bit tired, but still spacious and well-decorated. The service was a letdown due to uncooperative staff regarding early check-in. The location, though not in the center, is still pretty good, offering easy access to various amenities. The dining was a disappointment, not meeting the expected standards of a 5-star hotel.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms are spacious and clean, offering a lovely view of the mountains. The breakfast selection was excellent, and the staff was very friendly.
