My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The room I got was very clean with a massive comfortable King size bed, providing everything I needed for my stay. The service was quite pleasant, the staff being extremely friendly and helpful. The location was simply perfect for a nice vacation mode, with easy access to city services and bus stops right outside. Dining had good options, although I had to move frequently for others to pass. Overall, a great experience with a few minor inconveniences.

The hotel had a lovely room size which was quiet as requested, but it was a bit warm upon arrival. The surrounding area had some unsavory individuals, impacting the vacation vibe. The room felt a bit cramped with a king-size bed, and the placement of mirrors was odd.

The hotel rooms were super clean and spotless, but they smelled like old smoke. The breakfast was good and plentiful, albeit at an extra cost. The staff were young and not very competent, with some mixed experiences in service. The location was convenient for easy access to the city but lacked some amenities. The dining experience offered a nice selection of foods, although a bit far from town. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms with comfy beds, a fab coffee maker, and a lovely bathtub in a luxurious modern bathroom. The view of the nearby soccer field and residential housing adds to the charm. The service from the hotel staff is exceptional, particularly Dean who stands out as a top asset. The location is convenient with a bus stop right outside, providing easy access to various places. The dining experience, while not terribly impressive, still offers a decent variety. Overall, a great value for money stay with some minor dining drawbacks.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the upgrade to a suite was nice, the room was small for the price paid, and the temperature was too hot during the night. The service was professional and friendly, with spot-on answers to questions, but the staff playing in the bar were not overly friendly. The location is convenient, with hop on buses leaving every 15 or 20 minutes, although there was a loud humming noise present. Overall, it was a decent stay with some minor drawbacks.
