Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had spacious rooms with larger double beds, though not as expected. The rooms were adequate, clean, and provided with daily cleaning, fresh towels, and a bottle of water. The staff spoke some English and the hotel was conveniently located near many attractions, making it a great place to stay. Dining options were delicious, and the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel is ideally located in the center of downtown, making it convenient to explore the city's main attractions. The rooms are adequate and clean, although a bit small and worn. The service was mixed, ranging from disrespectful interactions to friendly assistance. The dining options were delicious and affordable outside the hotel. The location is perfect for those without a car due to terrible traffic but close to everything. Overall, a good value for a stay near the downtown area.
I stayed at this hotel a few days ago, and while the rooms were a bit dirty, they were spacious enough to comfortably accommodate 16 people. The service from the reception and room service personnel was efficient, friendly, and courteous, with some staff members who were able to speak a little English. The location is absolutely amazing, being in the center of downtown close to many tourist sites. The dining experience was delicious and affordable, although it was outside the hotel. Overall, I recommend this hotel, especially for its central location and accessibility to everything without needing to rely on taxis.
