Reviews and Ratings
I had a great experience at this hotel! The friendly staff made me feel welcome, and the location is fantastic, really convenient for exploring the area. The rooms were comfortable and clean, providing a cozy place to unwind after a day out. However, the dining options left a bit to be desired, and I think they could improve on that front. Overall, it was a good value for money, but there are areas that could use some attention.
