Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with 2 double beds and a kitchenette, providing perfect privacy. The usual amenities are available. However, the price may not match the value for money expected.
The hotel is in a convenient location, close to shops and restaurants, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms are basic but clean and come with a good shower. However, the bathroom had a horrible moldy smell that was hard to ignore. The service was decent, with what appeared to be the manager being helpful. The price was reasonable, but the lack of amenities affected the overall value for money.
The hotel is conveniently located near shops and restaurants, with comfortable rooms offering a kitchenette for added privacy. The service, provided by a friendly manager, was excellent with efficient housekeeping and laundry services. However, the dining experience lacked variety, and the facilities were somewhat basic. Overall, a decent stay with good value for money.
The hotel is located conveniently near shops and restaurants, with comfortable and private rooms featuring excellent showers and very cozy beds. The service is top-notch, especially with what I can only guess was the manager taking care of everything from housekeeping to laundry. The location is superb, close to the event I attended and a bustling town square offering plenty of dining options. The dining experience comes with inclusive meals, including a nice touch of white rice. The facilities are fantastic, making my stay truly enjoyable.
