5.6/10
Unfortunately, my stay at this hotel was less than ideal. While the pool area was lovely and the courtyard added a nice touch, the room I received was not up to par. I found it dank and musty, not fitting for the price I paid. There were issues with noise from other guests and a lack of proper service when it came to resolving them. Overall, it felt overpriced for what I experienced, which was disappointing.
