great locationshopping areapool facilitypoor layoutdark roomroom maintenance

The location is great. The hotel is very close to the shopping area. I could walk to everywhere nearby in the city (it was easy!). I also appreciated the pool facility .

The room's layout wasn't optimal for my needs. I expected more space. The toilet was in a separate, dark room with no sink. The maintenance of the room needs better attention.

The room had large twin beds. They were very comfy. The location is AMAZING!!! It is in the center of town providing easy access to shops and bars. I stayed for a concert. This was an ideal location to get to the stadium.

The bar had slow service.

the staff was really lovely and friendly. my room, the superior queen room, was very clean and bigger than i thought it would be. the breakfasts were also good with plenty to eat.

i checked in on a hot day and the hotel don't have air conditioning which i think is not good. i had to checkout early in the morning because it was hot. the receptionist was rude when i checked out at 5am.
