My stay at this hotel was mixed. While the cleanliness and modern decor of the rooms were impressive, I found them a bit small for the price, especially with the view obstructed by industrial waste. The staff were bright spots during my visit, offering helpful recommendations and genuinely welcoming service. However, I struggled with the mattress quality, which left much to be desired. Overall, while it has its charm, there are aspects that could use improvement for the cost.
