The hotel offers great value for the price with cozy and clean rooms, though the tables were placed too close together. The service was quick, friendly, and efficient, with a caring attitude towards the property. The location is convenient, within walking distance of various points of interest. The dining experience was fantastic with a wide range of options, but it wasn't very impressive in some aspects.
