My stay at the hotel was a bit mixed. The rooms were excellent - clean and comfortable, but not as luxurious as expected. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff being pleasant while others seemed inattentive. The location was perfect for exploring the city, but the dining was overpriced. Despite some drawbacks, the facilities were impressive.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although a bit old-fashioned, were equipped with air conditioning, but some maintenance issues like the balcony covered in moss and rusty railings were a downside. The dining room might need some improvement as well. On the bright side, the service was very responsive and the staff were extremely friendly.
