Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was just what I needed! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and perfectly located for my needs. The service was friendly and attentive, making me feel well taken care of. The location was convenient, offering great views and easy access to town. The dining options were a bit limited, but overall, a satisfying experience.
The hotel rooms were excellent with a queen bed and single bed, along with a table and desk. The rooms were clean but in need of some refurbishment, particularly the bathroom. The service was very friendly, but the new management has not upheld the same level of personal service as the previous owners. The location was fantastic, especially for kids and socializing, although it didn't match the website's photos. The dining experience was fantastic, albeit a little pricey. Overall, a good value for money stay.
The hotel is in a lovely location close to the city center, with clean rooms and friendly staff. However, the dining experience could be improved, and the air conditioning in the room was barely operational.
