I recently stayed at this hotel, and while the location is perfect and the staff was generally friendly, my experience was overshadowed by some significant issues. The rooms were comfortable but incredibly noisy, and the service was inconsistent. Dining options were limited, which was disappointing, especially considering the price. Overall, it has potential but needs improvements in several areas.
