I stayed at the hotel and found the location to be convenient, close to various attractions and eateries. The rooms had a slightly stale smell and needed some extra cleaning in corners, but once I switched to another room, it was spacious enough for my family. The service was accommodating, with the staff being cordial and helpful. The dining experience offered a modest continental breakfast in the morning. However, the surrounding area wasn't the most scenic, being near strip malls by a highway. Overall, the stay was decent with a good balance of positives and negatives.

The hotel room was a bit cramped with tight quarters but provided decent value for the money. The faucet on the basin was a bit shaky but functional. Unfortunately, the room had a strong smell of mildew and old cigarettes, which was not very pleasant.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was in great shape and clean, but the bed was not as comfortable as I had hoped for. The service provided was excellent, especially when they offered to find a better room for me due to a scent issue. However, the location was a bit of a downside for me being quite far from downtown. The dining options were limited, but the service and facilities made up for it.
