My stay at this hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, making for a restful night after exploring the nearby attractions. The staff was friendly and accommodating. However, the dining options left something to be desired, especially at breakfast, which had limited choices. On the positive side, the pool area was lovely and well-kept, adding to the enjoyment of my stay. The rates felt reasonable considering the experience, but it would be great if Wi-Fi was included in the price.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, which is situated in a vibrant area filled with shops and cafes. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, although they could use a touch of modernization. The staff was quite helpful, but there were moments where they seemed overwhelmed. The breakfast spread was lovely, with a good variety, but the dining area felt cramped during peak hours. Plus, the amenities such as the gym were adequate but could benefit from more equipment. Overall, it's a good place to stay, but there are areas for improvement.
