Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's location as it was close to many restaurants and attractions; however, they encountered numerous issues affecting their stay, primarily related to cleanliness and poor service. Many reviews pointed to unclean rooms, broken amenities, and indifferent staff, leading to a negative overall impression. Despite some positive mentions of specific staff members and amenities, the frustrations regarding cleanliness and service overshadowed the positives, making a return visit unlikely for many guests.
