I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, located in a truly great spot for exploring the main attractions of the city. The staff was friendly and offered helpful services, making my experience enjoyable. The rooms were spacious and clean, which was a plus. However, the dining options for breakfast could have been better, and the language barrier with some staff members was a bit of a concern. Overall, it offered great value for money considering its prime location.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was incredible, just steps away from major attractions, and the staff was genuinely friendly and helpful. However, the room I received wasn't ideal as it faced a wall instead of offering a city view, which was disappointing. The dining options were also somewhat limited, which detracted from the overall experience.
