The hotel is very nice. The rroms are big and very clean. Staff is frindly. The italian restaurant is good but the lounge/pub food is awful and service there was bad. The food at the lounge/pub was very overcooked/dry and it took about an hour each time to be ready.

They are currently shifting to the place across the street, so things are bit haphazard as they make the change. They did switch us to a different room when our key wasnt working. They also worked very hard to accomodate us in other ways. Overall good experience.

Good comfortable stay. The hotel has a nice location (near embassies, President's office and the UN) but being on the main road is a bit noisy. They can also improve their maintenance. But overall good for the price.
