My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable but starting to show some wear, and cleanliness was an issue with filthy lights. However, the location was perfect for my visit, and the hotel was nicely decorated. Service, on the other hand, was unfriendly and lacked professionalism. The dining experience was not included in the rate but was outstanding, especially with the breakfast staff. Overall, there were some positives but also several negatives to consider.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was perfect for my visit, everything within walking distance, but the room mix-up was frustrating. The service was a mixed bag, with some staff being very helpful while others seemed inexperienced. The dining experience was outstanding, but the mildew in the bathroom was a big letdown.
