I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with spacious rooms that looked just like the pictures online. The service was incredibly welcoming, making me feel right at home. The location is quite convenient, placed near the main street with easy access to attractions, although it did feel a bit eerie at night. Overall, it felt like good value for money, but the dining options could use some improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which featured a modern interior and clean, spacious rooms that matched the pictures I saw online. The service was welcoming and made me feel right at home. On the flip side, the location was a bit noisy as it was right on the roadside, and the dining options left something to be desired. Overall, it was a good value for money, but there were a few areas that could be improved.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The room was spacious with a comfortable sofa, providing me plenty of space to relax after a day of exploring. The service was exceptional, making me feel right at home with their warm hospitality. The location was convenient, just a short walk from the Waterfront, though it felt a bit eerie at night. Overall, I found it to be a great value for money, but the nearby area could be a little unsettling after dark.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and exactly as advertised, with a big couch that made it feel extra cozy. The staff went out of their way to make me feel at home, always smiling and ready to help. While the location was convenient for accessing local attractions during the day, it could feel a bit eerie at night. Overall, it was a great value for money, but a few improvements in lighting around the area would help.
