My stay at this hotel was amazing! The rooms were spotless and cozy, the staff was incredibly welcoming. However, the dining experience left something to be desired as the traditional dishes weren't as authentic as I hoped. The facilities were top-notch, but the air conditioning could have been stronger. Overall, a clean, comfortable, and friendly hotel.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms with cooking facilities were spacious and modern, but lacking in terms of comfort with only 2 double beds in a cramped space. The service was friendly, but the lack of room service was a letdown. The location was convenient, with a few restaurants nearby, but the absence of a store in the vicinity was disappointing. Dining options were limited to a selection of local cold cuts, which didn't meet expectations. The facilities were adequate, but not luxurious.
