The hotel is decent, with a clean room and generous space, but it's definitely showing its age and could use some serious upgrades. The location is good, being a short walk from town and close to supermarkets, but the lack of air conditioning was a letdown during warm weather. Service was excellent, with helpful staff, but the dining options could use some creativity.

I spent two nights at this hotel and while it was reasonably priced, the overall experience was somewhat disappointing. The rooms are outdated and in need of serious renovations. The breakfast was adequate but not exceptional, and the service at times felt a bit pressured. The location, however, was convenient with easy access to shops and amenities.

This hotel had some highlights like spacious rooms and friendly staff, but it also fell short in several areas. The beds were uncomfortable, and the dining experience was underwhelming, especially breakfast. While it's convenient to have laundry facilities, the overall amenities could use an update for a more pleasant stay.

The hotel has potential but definitely needs some serious updates. While the room was spacious and quiet, it felt a bit grubby and was next to a busy spot which made for some noise. The staff was very accommodating and helpful, making the experience a bit better. However, the amenities and overall appearance of the hotel left much to be desired, making it hard to recommend for future stays.

I found the hotel to be a bit tired and in need of updates. While the rooms were spacious and clean, some furnishings, especially the beds, were quite worn out, which affected comfort. The staff were helpful and welcoming, but the dining options, especially breakfast, could use more variety. Overall, I enjoyed my stay, but there's room for improvement in some areas.
