This hotel is a gem! The rooms are cozy and spotless, and the staff is incredibly welcoming. The location is superb, just a stone's throw from the metro. Although the dining options can be improved, the facilities are top-notch. A great value for the money!

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, providing a comfortable stay. The service was excellent, with helpful staff and great amenities available. The location was convenient, very near the metro station, making it easy to explore the city. The dining experience was delightful, offering fresh cream cakes. However, the price could be considered a bit high for the overall value provided.
