I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was superb, right in the heart of downtown close to all the amenities and a stone's throw away from amazing restaurants and bars. The rooms were cozy, clean, and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The service was exceptional; they even offered a convenient laundry service. The hotel is situated in the older part of town, which added to its charm. However, the dining options were a bit limited, but the quality of the meat served was top-notch. Overall, a great place to stay with excellent value for money.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, but the air conditioning could be more effective. The service was top-notch with accommodating staff. The location was convenient, but the noise from nearby bars was a bit bothersome. Unfortunately, the dining options were limited and overpriced for the quality provided.
