My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. While the rooms were clean and comfortable, they lacked facilities compared to other hotels of the same rating. The top-floor room I stayed in was cozy but felt standard. The service was friendly and nice, but at times, amenities felt uncomfortable and uncooperative. The location seemed good at first, but ongoing metro projects and road works made it challenging to access shops or restaurants. Dining was excellent with a variety of foods available both in the lobby and during breakfast.
