市内中心部の観光拠点としてあり、です
Pros:

治安が悪いエリアと聞いていたがすぐ近くに歴史ある公園や博物館があり、日中は徒歩で観光が楽しめた。部屋は予想以上に広くてびっくり。スタッフの人たちはみんなフレンドリーで感じがよかった。ビジネス用のチェーン系のホテルとしては上出来だと思う

Cons:

団体グループが多いホテルなので、朝食時にぶつかるときつい

It was not a great stay. It was not value for money.
Pros:

Location is convenient

Cons:

Rooms are too tiny. Cramped with luggage. The shower was the worst. Please renovate. Breakfast , couldn’t have an omelette because the person who does them was not available all those days. Not even sunrise egg. Boiled egg was burnt. The waffle was so hard because they store them in an oven. Muffin and croissant as well. You have to choose a slot for breakfast. 15 floors and their breakfast area caters for less than 50ppl and yet they are fully booked.

Value for money - city hotel
Pros:

Middle of town, able to walk safely for short distances and access to restaurants and shops. Decent cleanness.

Cons:

Having to choose time slot for breakfast. Hotel should find different incentive for spreading the queue to breakfast.
