I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was situated oddly at the corner, not the most ideal layout, although it was spacious. The service was lacking in guidance but improved during interactions with the lady manager. The location was convenient, close to the city center with plenty of dining options nearby. The dining experience was a highlight with a variety of tasty options, but the facilities were outdated and in need of renovation.

The hotel's rooms were fantastic, big, and roomy with a great bed, although they are dated and need a freshen up but were adequate and comfortable. They were incredibly hot and stuffy, especially overnight, which made it a bit warm. The service was mixed, dealing with a very long line of customers trying to check in and assisting with a refund request due to an emergency, but they were also very informative. The location was good, in desperate need of a revamp, but it was wonderful with fabulous local restaurants and central to all the main attractions, so close to everything. The dining experience had many options, with a full buffet priced at $28 per person, ranging from very ordinary to delish and worth the money. The facilities overall were satisfactory.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms had a beautiful outlook overlooking the church and the river, and the two sets of windows allowed for a comfortable sleep despite the noisy portable air conditioner. The service was top-notch with very obliging staff, although a room change was not initially offered. The location was excellent for exploring the city, but parking could be tricky without hotel staff supervision. The dining experience left something to be desired, but the wood-fired pizza was really good. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor hiccups.

I found the hotel to be a mixed bag. The rooms, though in need of an update, were comfortable with good linen and a modern bathroom, and having its own air conditioning unit made me feel safer and healthier. The service was a bit hit or miss, with staff trying their hardest but sometimes felt like they were going through the motions. The location was convenient for my needs, being just off the city center, but there were better options in the area. The dining experience was a winner with excellent selection, although I personally prefer buffet style. Overall, the facilities were adequate.

The hotel is conveniently located close to city attractions and provides spacious rooms with a seating area, but some rooms may lack natural light due to facing building lights. The service was friendly, but staff knowledge was limited, and some areas were not adequately distanced. The location is perfect for exploring the city center and nearby parks, although there was construction noise nearby. The dining experience offered a variety of choices and a pleasant environment. Facilities were satisfactory, though with some room for improvement in certain areas.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room I initially checked into hadn't been cleaned, but it was quite spacious. Despite the inconvenience, the great coffee and food available in the downstairs lobby were a nice touch. However, the room was far too hot, making it uncomfortable to sleep without air conditioning.
