I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, offering a comfortable retreat after a long day. The staff was very accommodating and responded quickly to any requests, making my experience enjoyable. However, I found the dining options lacking and the pool area could have been better maintained. Overall, it's a decent choice for the price but not without its quirks.

I stayed at this grand hotel and found it to be a luxurious experience overall. The rooms were not just clean but also spacious and very comfortable, which I truly appreciated after a long day of exploring. However, the dining options were somewhat limited, especially for breakfast. The facilities, particularly the pool area, were nice, but there were a few minor issues that detracted from the overall enjoyment. The price felt reasonable for what I received, even though I wish Wi-Fi was included in the rate.
