My experience at this hotel was mixed. On one hand, the location was quite convenient and allowed easy access to local attractions. However, I faced cleanliness issues, particularly with the bathroom and the overall upkeep of the facilities. While the room had potential, it needed significant attention for a comfortable stay.

I had a very disappointing experience at this hotel. The rooms had a terrible odor, and I encountered multiple cleanliness issues which made my stay uncomfortable. While the location is convenient, it does not compensate for the lack of maintenance and inadequate service. The staff, while sometimes helpful, did not provide the level of service I expected.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and honestly, it could use some serious updates. The location is somewhat convenient, but my experience was far from ideal due to cleanliness issues and unresponsive staff. While the breakfast was decent, the overall quality of the rooms left a lot to be desired, and it definitely wasn't value for money based on my stay.

Unfortunately, the overall facilities and dining options didn't meet my expectations. While it was conveniently located, I wouldn't recommend it due to the lack of basic upkeep.

The hotel provided a reasonably priced option during my stay, with a comfortable room that suited my needs. However, the ongoing renovations were noticeable and impacted the overall experience, especially with amenities like the fitness center being unavailable. I appreciated the nearby breakfast spot, but the lack of an included breakfast was a downside.
