7.8/10

Although my stay was pleasant overall, there were some drawbacks. The rooms, while clean and comfortable, had a musty smell and a noisy refrigerator. The service was outstanding, especially the lovely lady during breakfast, but I found only one coffee cup in my room. The location, despite being convenient and close to many chain restaurants and stores, had some construction materials nearby. The dining options were good but lacked variety in the breakfast setup. The facilities were decent, but there were some damp towels in the bathroom.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were so clean and comfortable with all the amenities I needed for a great stay. They were spacious, bright, and modern, but the musty smell and noisy refrigerator were a downside. Surprisingly, being on the first floor, the rooms had high ceilings.
