Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was convenient, close to the city center and the marina, which was great for exploring. The rooms were decent after a free upgrade but quite small, and the service varied from lackluster to welcoming. The dining experience was average, and the facilities offered were standard.
Although the room was clean and had decent facilities, it felt a bit cramped for a couple with a toddler. The service was friendly and professional, and the location was great for exploring the city. The dining options were somewhat average, focused more on quantity than quality. Overall, a satisfactory stay considering the value for money.
