The service was pleasant and helpful, with staff going out of their way to assist, although it could get a bit chaotic during busy times. The location was perfect for exploring the city and its historical sights. The dining experience was enjoyable but could benefit from more continental options. Overall, a well-presented hotel with friendly staff and a great central location.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room, arranged by my colleagues at the University, was on the top floor with a balcony, and it was nice and spacious, although it felt a bit dated. The air conditioning worked perfectly, which was a lifesaver in the hot weather. Despite some minor drawbacks, it was a comfortable stay.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although spacious with an old-fashioned charm, had a small bathroom and a noisy air conditioning system. However, my room on the top floor with a balcony was lovely and well-equipped, especially the effective air con given the hot weather. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff carrying on with tasks regardless of guests waiting, yet I found them helpful when needed. The location was excellent, right in the center of town making it easy to explore on foot, but the hotel itself could use some renovation. Dining was a pleasant experience after enjoying meals at local restaurants, although the options were limited, and the facilities were nice overall.
