The hotel offers spacious and modern rooms, but the bathroom design is outdated resembling a scene from a 1970's movie. The service is friendly and attentive, although the suggestion to only drink tap water might not suit everyone. The location is ideal for exploring the city, with multiple dining options nearby. The dining experience varies from poor to excellent depending on the restaurant choice, but overall, options are abundant. The facilities are well-maintained with certain areas needing improvement.
