I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and clean, offering a peaceful retreat away from the noise of busy roads. However, they seemed a bit worn and could benefit from a refresh. The service was exceptional during my short weekend stay, with attentive staff who went out of their way to accommodate our needs. The location was ideal, providing easy access to the city center without the hustle and bustle. The dining options were varied and satisfying, catering to both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Overall, a good value for money with a few areas that could be improved.
