I had a somewhat mixed experience at this hotel. The location is absolutely fantastic for exploring the city, with stunning views that I couldn't get enough of. However, I was quite disappointed with the room condition and service aspects. While some staff were helpful, others seemed overwhelmed, and cleanliness in my room left much to be desired. The breakfast was decent but could definitely use some improvement in variety.

Rooms

The room showed significant wear and tear; it was not as clean and comfortable as I had expected, and it ended up being quite cold during my stay.
Service
5.0
Some staff were friendly, but the service overall was inconsistent; I felt neglected at times when I sought assistance.
Location

The hotel is ideally located within walking distance to major attractions, which made it easy for sightseeing.

The hotel had decent amenities, but it felt aged and in need of an upgrade to meet guest expectations.
