Guests say
Overall, guests appreciated the excellent service, convenient location, and the amazing breakfast options at the hotel. However, there were significant concerns regarding cleanliness, particularly with reports of cockroaches and unpleasant odors in the rooms. Additionally, the amenities, including air conditioning and water pressure, need improvement. Guests also noted accessibility issues, especially for those with heavy luggage or elderly individuals.
