I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is centrally located with easy access to public transport and local attractions. The rooms offered a comfortable space, but some amenities could use an upgrade. The breakfast served was quite adequate; however, the dining area could be improved for comfort. Overall, it was a good value for a family-friendly hotel.
