Upon entering, the rooms had a slightly musty smell, and our room was conveniently located near the elevator and across from the breakfast area, which was great for easy access. On the plus side, our lovely dog was welcomed warmly. However, it was noticeable that the room had not been dusted for a while, with dust build-up on all upper surfaces.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were warm and inviting, equipped with essential amenities, but the lack of cleanliness was evident with spiderwebs and spiders present. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff who went above and beyond, even offering discounts. The location was convenient and close to nearby services, although some noisy operators affected the overall experience. The dining options, while offering a decent selection, lacked fresh fruit and hot enough items. Overall, a stay with both positive and negative aspects.
