Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The location is excellent, close to various attractions and dining options, but the unrenovated appearance of the building might deter some visitors. The dining options are convenient, with a kitchenette available, but the lack of homemade bread could be a downside for some. The facilities are well-kept, offering a pleasant stay overall.
I have to say my stay at this hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The location was absolutely stunning, with well-kept surroundings and great views. The service was friendly, but there were a few hiccups with the rooms and dining options. Overall, a decent stay for the price.
