I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The apartment I stayed in was surprisingly spacious, but it lacked some basic amenities like water bottles. The service was genuine, although there were hiccups with last-minute changes. The location was central enough for getting around, but it had some downsides like being a bit gloomy and not well-lit. Overall, it felt like decent value for money, just missing a few touches.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the location next to some great dining spots was a plus, the room left much to be desired with its musty odor and lack of cleanliness. The service was a mixed bag—some of the staff were nice, but check-in was a hassle. Overall, it feels like the hotel could use a bit of maintenance and care.

During my stay, I found the hotel to be a bit of a mixed bag. The room I received was in the basement, which felt pretty cramped and didn't have a window or proper ventilation. It was disappointing to see that it wasn't properly cleaned before I arrived either. On a positive note, the staff was quite attentive and did help arrange another room for me later on. The location was decent, making it convenient to access nearby attractions. I believe there's potential here, but some areas need improvement.
