I had a great time at this hotel! The spacious and modern rooms were quite comfortable, and the air conditioning was a lifesaver during my stay. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of the city and close to everything I needed. However, I found the breakfast options to be a bit lackluster, and the Wi-Fi should definitely be included as it required an additional fee.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which was conveniently located near coffee shops and shops in town. My room was clean and cozy, providing a comfortable space to relax. The breakfast was decent, but it could definitely use more variety. Overall, while the amenities were nice and well-maintained, I feel the value for money could be improved since I had some issues accessing Wi-Fi without extra fees.

My stay at this hotel was quite nice overall. The rooms were really clean and offered a lot of comfort. I loved how easy it was to get to the nearby coffee shops and shops. However, I did find that the breakfast options in the dining area were somewhat limited, which was a bit disappointing. The facilities were also enjoyable but could use some small touches to elevate them. Overall, it was still a decent choice for the price.
