The hotel had a good location with plenty of great food options nearby, and I felt safe walking around. The service was excellent, with friendly and accommodating staff willing to help with requests. However, the rooms were quite small, which made it a bit tricky to move around, and the dining options were limited, especially for breakfast.

I had a decent stay at this hotel with some highlights and a few drawbacks. The rooms were clean and fresh, and the staff was really friendly and helpful, which made the experience pleasant. However, the location is a bit tricky to navigate without good access to public transport, and there wasn't really much in terms of dining options available. Overall, it was value for money, but there are definitely areas for improvement.
