I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is situated just outside of downtown. The rooms were quite spacious and had a modern feel, but the noise from the street could be a bit disruptive at times. The dining options were enjoyable, especially the breakfast, but I would have preferred more variety. Overall, it felt like a good value for money, but some amenities like Wi-Fi had additional charges.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel with clean and comfortable accommodations. The staff members were very welcoming, which made my experience even better. However, the dining options weren't as varied as I would have liked, particularly at breakfast. The pool area was a nice touch, and while the prices were reasonable, I was a bit disappointed that Wi-Fi wasn't included in the stay.
