The hotel offers a stunning view and delicious food, with enough facilities. The rooms, although a bit old, are perfectly clean and warm. However, some may find them disgustingly dirty on the same scale.

The hotel offers a very nice view from the rooms, and the food is delicious. However, there were some cleanliness issues with cockroaches in the room.

The facilities provided were really amazing with everything one would expect.

The hotel offers grandeur and comfort with a very nice view from the rooms. The food is delicious, and there are enough facilities available. However, some electronic devices in the room were not functional, and the furnishings are old and in need of an update.
The hotel is a bit out of the city center, which has its advantages and disadvantages. It's located in a great area for shopping and dining, but there aren't many tourist attractions within walking distance.

The dining experience is satisfactory though the variety may be less compared to higher-rated hotels. Overall, it's a decent choice for a stay away from the hustle and bustle, with some trade-offs to consider.
