My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The location was very convenient, close to various amenities, but lacked charm. The service was accommodating, especially in assisting with transportation. The dining experience offered excellent variety, and the facilities were satisfactory.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious enough, but being directed to the 'new wing' felt like a ploy for an upsell, and the room itself felt a bit abandoned and imperfect. On the plus side, the service was generally pleasant, although I had some mixed feelings about the staff in the downstairs restaurant. The location was convenient for nearby amenities but had a grey look to the district. The dining had both unhealthy and excellent options. The facilities were adequate, but I noticed a lack of attention to details like cleanliness.
Staying at this hotel was quite a mixed experience. The rooms in the newer building were a bit dark and depressing, but at least they were available compared to the closed wing without windows. The service was lacking in professionalism and friendliness, with some rude and inconsiderate encounters. On the bright side, the location was very convenient for accessing various amenities nearby, despite looking a bit shady after dark. The dining options provided good variety for international travelers, though some facilities felt a bit dated.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the bright side, the new building where my room was reserved had a modern and renovated feel. However, the unkempt and dirty appearance of the old building rooms left me no choice but to opt for a pricier option in the newer building. The service was friendly but a bit reluctant in communication, and the location, although close to my place, felt shady after dark.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of ups and downs. The rooms, though spacious, had posts obstructing the view. The hotel was bustling with local events, making it quite lively, but the heat was a bit overwhelming. The service was lacking overall, except for one attentive receptionist. The location was convenient for my needs, although it lacked charm. The dining experience was good, except for breakfast, and the facilities were adequate.
The hotel offers cheap rooms that unfortunately have no windows, giving them an abandoned room-like feel. It was very crowded with three birthday parties and two wedding receptions during my stay. Despite the popularity with locals, the room rates are affordable, which is a bonus.
