Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests consistently praised the hotel's central location, making it easy to access transportation, shopping, and attractions. Many enjoyed the breakfast and found the staff friendly, but some experienced issues with cleanliness and room maintenance. Noise from the bar and surrounding area was a frequent complaint, especially at night. While some rooms were clean and comfortable, others were described as tired or in need of better upkeep. Overall, the location and breakfast stood out as highlights, though improvements are needed in cleanliness and noise control.
