Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offered a decent stay overall. The rooms were okay, although a bit dated and in need of some updates. The service was friendly and accommodating, but the parking situation could be challenging. The location was convenient for some, but the dining experience left a bit to be desired.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and very quiet, providing a good night's sleep despite feeling a bit outdated. The service, however, was inconsistent, with some staff members displaying indifference. The location was ideal for my needs, but there were some issues with noise levels and prices in certain areas. The dining options varied, with pre-paying for meals being a good idea, although breakfast quality was lacking. Overall, it's a place with both positives and negatives to consider.
The hotel has a great location with a grand appearance, but rooms need updating. Service was marred by communication issues and wait times. Dining experience did not meet expectations.
