Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The location was fantastic, being centrally located near all the action, but the room I stayed in was quite loud due to its proximity to multiple open bar events. The hotel rooms had some maintenance issues like cracked tiles and rust, and the balcony view was obstructed by a brick wall.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and had a great little balcony, but the view from the balcony was mainly blocked by a brick wall. The service was friendly and accommodating, and the staff even remembered my husband's name the next day. The location was inviting with live music, but the pool could have been warmer. The dining was subpar and not worth the investment, but the cream cakes were extraordinary. Overall, a comfortable stay with some ups and downs.
