I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which boasts well-kept amenities, including an inviting pool area. The staff was helpful and made my experience enjoyable. However, I found the dining options lacking, especially during breakfast. The room was cozy but could use a bit more attention to detail. Overall, it offered good value for money, but improvements could enhance the experience significantly.
