Reviews and Ratings
I had a mix of experiences at this hotel. The rooms were in need of upgrades but were surprisingly beautiful for the price. However, there was a noticeable smell of cat pee, possibly from a leaky vent. The service was generally kind and caring, although I did notice some lapses. The location was convenient for accessing local attractions but there were cleaner, more affordable options nearby. The dining experience was subpar compared to similar hotels, lacking key breakfast items. Overall, a stay with highs and lows.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were excellent, spacious, and nicely furnished. The breakfast was great, with the cook making omelette stop orders, and I even received a sweet gift of chocolate-covered strawberries and champagne waiting in the fridge. The hotel is in a good location, which was very convenient.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but there was a slight issue with water next to the bed that required a room change. Despite the friendly staff, the rooms smelled like pet urine, giving off an unpleasant vibe. The location was convenient for our activities, though cleanliness and restocking needed attention. The dining experience had highs and lows with understocked food, but it was better than some restaurants. Overall, the hotel had potential with some areas needing improvement.
