My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room was a bit cramped and outdated, but for the price I paid, it wasn't worth it. The service was friendly, and breakfast was enjoyable. The location suited my needs perfectly, but the dining options were expensive and lacking in variety.

The hotel offers a cozy stay with some room for improvement. The rooms are more like a hostel, requiring a fresh touch, and the shower is quite small for the price. The service is friendly but could be more attentive to details. The location is convenient for visits to the area but lacks some space. The dining experience is varied, but the breakfast setup could be better. Overall, a decent option with potential for enhancements.

5.6/10

The hotel had both positives and negatives. The rooms were tired and in need of modernization, but the beds were comfy. The staff had a mix of confrontational and pleasant interactions. The location was convenient for exploring but lacked some charm. The dining was hit or miss with additional charges, but with a good selection. Overall, a mix of experiences during the stay.
