Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were not as advertised in the pictures but provided a quiet and clean environment, though not ideal for couples. The service was mixed with professional and friendly staff but also instances of attempted overcharging. The location was excellent, right in the heart of the city with easy access to various amenities. The dining experience was lacking, with limited options, and the facilities were considered poor.
The hotel was in a prime location, near the city center and the United States embassy. The rooms were small but comfortable and very clean, although some noise from upstairs was noticeable. The service was impeccable with helpful staff, yet an unresolved issue was a downside. The dining experience was below standard compared to international hotels. Overall, a convenient option with a few shortcomings worth considering.
The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of the city, offering easy access to restaurants and nightlife. The rooms are clean and tidy, though they can be noisy due to thin walls. The service is friendly and helpful, although language limitations may exist. The dining options are satisfactory but could be improved. Overall, a good value for money stay.
Arriving late in the evening, the room was half ready and had a slight cigarette smoke smell, yet it was clean and surprisingly comfortable. I would definitely recommend it for a cozy stay.
I found the hotel to be a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks. The rooms were spacious and quiet, although the sound insulation could be improved. The breakfast was large and fresh, but the proximity of the rooms made it easy to hear bathroom noises.
