I had a wonderful experience at this hotel, attending their themed food night, which was a delightful Chinese cuisine extravaganza. The food was freshly prepared, with generous portions that left us satisfied. The staff was incredibly welcoming, making us feel at home, while the atmosphere was warm and friendly.

I had a good base for exploring the area during my two-night stay. The hotel was very clean and comfortable, though the service could be inconsistent. Breakfast was outstanding, thanks to the friendly breakfast staff. Unfortunately, my evening experience at the restaurant left much to be desired as I was ignored by the bar staff, prompting us to dine elsewhere. Overall, I'd say it's a decent place if you're not too picky about service.
