Overall, my stay was quite pleasant. The rooms are modern and well-equipped with great views, although the service had a few hiccups when checking in. The hotel is conveniently located near several attractions, making it easy to explore. The dining options were somewhat limited, but I enjoyed the homemade sausages offered. It feels like decent value for the price, but I did expect a bit more consistency in service.
