I loved the location of this hotel. The reception staff though was a bit cold when we arrived, not very welcoming just like meh to us. But the other staff like the gentlemen who help carry our bags up to our rooms, the cleaning staff and the breakfast staff were all so warm and exceptional to us at all times. The room itself was a bit dusty and outdated. One afternoon we came in from a tour and were covered in sweat and dust and wanted a nice cold shower but no water in the sinks or shower head so we had to let reception know and wait about 30 mins til it got resolved. The breakfast was ok, maybe a few more fruit, bread, cheeses and salad options would’ve been nice.

It is definitely a very good choice for the price. I will most likely stay at the same place next time. The only problem was that the wifi in my room was somewhat spotty. When it was very weak, I had to go outside of the room to get proper wifi (there was a chair there so that helped a little...).

I had booked this particular hotel as the hotel website and Expedia website advised that it had a restaurant and bar lounge. In fact it does not therefore my intention to have a relaxing drink at the bar and socialise and sit at the restaurant were not met. The hotel has outsourced the restaurant next door BUT it is not the same. The hotel AND Expedia are still advertising this amenities!!! The staff in general are courteous and I was allowed to have a shower and freshen up before my evening flight.
