My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the room had some maintenance issues and the ongoing construction noise was bothersome, the spacious room with a huge balcony and excellent amenities like bathrobes made it quite comfortable. The breakfast buffet offered a good variety of food, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. However, the service could be hit or miss, with some staff members being unhelpful, while others were pleasant and eager to assist.
