I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, enjoying the clean and spacious rooms that provided a quiet environment to relax. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, guiding me to various attractions nearby. However, the dining options were quite limited and didn't meet the expectations for a five-star hotel. Overall, it offers great value for money, especially due to its location and room quality.
