I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which was very clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and accommodating, making my experience quite enjoyable. However, while the location was fantastic near a shopping center with various dining options, some aspects of the service could use improvement. Overall, it’s great value for money, though the Wi-Fi being an extra cost was a bit disappointing.
