Reviews and Ratings
After a call to Booking, I found the room to be small but comfortable and clean, equipped with an air conditioning system that was working well and provided a view of the inside garden. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful, offering valet parking for $25 per night. The location was excellent, just a 10-minute walk from the Dome and the central area. The dining experience was okay but nothing special. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor inconveniences.
Staying at this hotel felt like having our own apartment. The rooms, unfortunately, were extremely hot as the AC was adjusted centrally for all rooms. The accessibility by lift made it convenient for disabled guests. The location was excellent, just a 10-minute walk from the Dome and the central area, with many dining options close by. The dining experience had few savory options to choose from, but the service was top-notch with very friendly and helpful staff. The facilities were decent, providing all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. Despite the rooms being kept clean and available earlier than the official check-in time, the double room was too small. On the bright side, the room had air conditioning and a quality mattress.
I found the hotel to be a great choice for my stay. The rooms were clean and had everything I needed, but the AC being centrally controlled made it quite hot at times. The service was professional and friendly, making my experience pleasant overall. The location was perfect for exploring the city, with the main attractions within walking distance. The dining options were decent but not exceptional. Overall, a good value for the money.
