"Overall, we had a good stay. The location is excellent, the room was clean, the air conditioning worked well, and the breakfast had a good selection. The gym was also very good, although often crowded. The main downside was the service. Housekeeping was only provided every two days, and the room could use a few more basic amenities. We requested a kettle but never received one. We also had to follow up several times with the front desk after being told someone would come to our room but no one showed up. The staff could also have been more helpful and welcoming. Overall, a good hotel with a great location, but the service could be improved."
