Excellent central location on pedestrian/shopping streets, walking distance to restaurants and attractions; a few comments that it's ~10 minutes to the metro or not close to some malls.

8.8
Rooms described as large, comfortable and modern inside; some negatives reported (air-conditioning smell, slightly sunken bed, flat pillows, one guest noted bathroom issues).

8.9
Good amenities noted (gym, pool, generous breakfast buffet); minor inconveniences mentioned such as the smoking area downstairs and a missing socket near the mirror.
Value for Money
8.7
Multiple guests noted fair price-quality balance and recommended the hotel; the double-charge billing incident lowered perceived value for one reviewer.
Food and Beverage
8.5
Breakfast repeatedly praised as excellent/exceptional with a wide buffet, though some guests disliked specific items (croissants) or wanted more variety changes and one guest disliked the food overall.
Overall Experience
8.7
Majority of reviews describe an excellent, highly recommended stay with return intentions; a few consistent minor issues (billing, AC smell, smoking area, bedding comfort) temper an otherwise very positive overall impression.
