Cleanliness
7.2
Many guests described rooms and facilities as very clean, but there are isolated serious issues (reported ant infestation with bites, odd smells) that reduce confidence.
Service

Consistently praised: staff named (Melissa, Jessica, the GM) and multiple reports of staff going above and beyond and being very helpful.
Location
9
Repeatedly noted as a great, central location within walking distance to restaurants and shopping.
Room Quality
8.2
Rooms described as comfortable, spacious, with good AC, but occasional issues (humidity, non-working lamps, warm hallways, and the one pest report) tempered the score.
Amenities
8.6
Breakfast variety, a well-liked 24-hour coffee machine, and typical hotel amenities praised; pool exists but late-night pool noise was reported.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed impressions: some callers say it is the best deal in town, while others find it somewhat pricey and note fluctuating rates.

Breakfast and coffee repeatedly praised (variety and quality), offering a strong F&B impression overall.

Majority of reviews indicate a very positive stay with many repeat-stay intentions; a few significant negatives (pest report, noise) keep the overall slightly below top-tier.
