Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is a comfortable stay for a family of four but with some dated rooms that had a slight cigarette smoke smell. The staff is helpful and accommodating but could improve on communication. The location is good for a stopover, albeit a bit far from the main attractions. The dining offers a wide selection but had some quality issues. Overall, a decent option for the price.
I found the hotel to be a mix of good and not-so-good features. The family rooms had better decor and bathrooms, but I was surprised to see used paper cups for tea. There was a slight stale smoke smell in the rooms, which was a downside. The service was efficient and courteous, but the staff could be a bit loud at times. The location was central in a tower housing project, but the outside area needed attention. The dining options left something to be desired, with limited choices and a broken coffee machine. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel had spacious rooms with the best technology setup we found on this trip, but they were noisy overlooking the pool and play area. The service was welcoming and helpful, although a bit slow at times. The location had nice outside seating but could be tidier, and there were some unsavory types in the area. The dining was overall good, but some items were not great for the money. The facilities were satisfactory.
