Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is convenient and there are great attractions nearby, but I had some serious cleanliness and noise issues during my stay. While the service was commendable, the quality of the room left much to be desired. Overall, I might return, but I need to consider other options first.
