I found the staff exceedingly friendly and helpful, from reception to the service staff. the food is prepared with care and served in generous portions. i especially recommend the gourmet burger. It had unbelievable flavor. the hotel offers clean, spacious rooms, comfortable beds, and powerful showers.
The coffee at breakfast was notably strong and bitter. It was undrinkable. the bathroom fan didn't work, causing the room to become quite steamy after showers.

Average Experience

hard bed costly breakfast
The bed felt hard. It was not the most comfortable thing after a long day. Breakfast cost extra too. I think the cost was a bit much for a small breakfast. This hotel has good points but also had some downsides .
