The hotel boasts a fantastic location, right in the heart of the city which makes everything easily accessible. The rooms are modern and have breathtaking views, making for a comfortable stay. The staff were friendly and accommodating. However, the dining options were limited, and the amenities could use some improvement. Overall, I felt it was good value for money, but there are a few areas where it could be better.

The hotel boasts a prime location, just steps away from the bustling city center, making it super convenient for exploring. The rooms are modern and spacious with some offering a lovely view, though they could be slightly cleaner. The service was friendly, and the staff went out of their way to assist. On the downside, while the dining options were decent, they left room for improvement, especially with breakfast variety.

The hotel is in a perfect spot, nestled in the mountains, providing a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. The rooms are spacious and modern, and the staff is exceptionally friendly. However, the dining options could use some improvement, and the Wi-Fi is not included, which is a bit of a downside.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, thanks to its great location close to the city center and spacious, clean rooms. The staff was really friendly, making me feel welcome. However, the dining options, especially breakfast, were somewhat limited, which was a letdown. The facilities are well-kept, but I wish there were more amenities available. Overall, for the price, it offers decent value, although additional Wi-Fi charges might be a downside for some.
