The hotel has some great points like a central location and a clean, comfortable environment. However, I found the service lacking due to language barriers and staff responsiveness. The dining options for breakfast were a bit restricted, which made it challenging to choose ahead of time. Overall, it's decent value for money but there's room for improvement.
