I had mixed feelings about this hotel. On one hand, the staff was incredibly empathetic and helpful, especially during our unfortunate experiences with the room conditions. On the other hand, the overall cleanliness and maintenance really left much to be desired. While the breakfast offered a decent spread, the dining experience overall lacked quality. Overall, it feels like the hotel could greatly benefit from some serious renovations and improvements.
