Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were very clean, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The dinners were delicious, and the homemade jams at breakfast were a nice touch. However, some aspects of the rooms were not great, such as the noisy air-conditioning and the overpriced amenities.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were large, comfortable, and had everything one could need. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious with homemade jams for breakfast. The spa was great with a wonderful pool, although the decor is a little dated.
The hotel room had some drawbacks with dirty carpeting, thin sheets, an old couch, and a suspect bed frame. Despite these issues, we managed to make the best of it, especially appreciating the separate room with a crib for our toddler, even though it was quite loud. The location was impeccable for exploring sights, restaurants, and shopping, being just a short walk from various attractions. The dining experience was pleasant, providing excellent meals at reasonable prices.
