The hotel location is very good and convenient. The cleanliness was good overall, and the breakfast was also good with a nice variety. The best part of the stay was the staff — everyone was very friendly, attentive, and helpful. However, the rooms feel quite old and are in need of repairs and renovation. With some updates to the rooms, the overall experience would be much better.
