I had an overall positive experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, offering a nice level of comfort. The location, while a bit far from the city center, made it easy to access major highways. The service was friendly, but there were some issues with responsiveness. I enjoyed the amenities, but the dining options could use improvement as they were limited in choices.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the plus side, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and I appreciated the free private parking. However, the rooms were definitely not what I expected—initially put in a tiny space that felt cramped, and the location was a bit challenging for getting around, especially at night.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was not ideal for public transport and getting there alone in the dark felt a bit intimidating. On the bright side, the staff was friendly and helpful, and I did appreciate the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms. However, the dining options were quite limited, and the only thing I found enjoyable was the coffee before heading out to explore the city.

My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The rooms were clean and had a nice kitchenette, which was a plus for me. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to help, but the location left a bit to be desired—especially when trying to navigate public transport. The dining options felt limited, and I wished for more variety, but the facilities were well-kept. I think it offers good value for money, but there are definitely areas that could improve.

My stay was a mixed bag. The hotel room we initially received was a bit cramped and not at all what I expected based on the pictures, but the staff was friendly and very helpful during my stay. The location was a bit remote and not the best for public transport, which made getting around a bit tricky. Overall, it provided decent value for money, but there were a few drawbacks that made it less than ideal.
