Categories

Cleanliness
8
Generally reported as clean in many reviews, with several guests praising cleanliness; however a few guests reported issues (not clean, loose/old windows, maintenance concerns) which lowers the score slightly.
Service
10
Consistently highlighted across multiple reviews and languages as excellent — very polite, helpful and attentive staff and reception repeatedly praised; staff often described as the best part of the stay.
Location
9.4
Multiple mentions of convenient location (near mall, good access, good price-location balance). A minority note limited nearby tourist spots or street access difficulties, but overall location is a strong positive.
Room Quality
9.2
Rooms described as large, well maintained and comfortable by many guests; some isolated issues reported (loose windows, old locks) but overall room quality is good.
Amenities
9
On-site amenities are limited according to some reviews (no lobby, few amenities), yet service-oriented solutions (breakfast to room, responsive reception) make the guest experience functional; limited physical amenities tempered by strong service.
Value for Money
5.5
Several strong negative comments explicitly state poor value and that the property is not worth the price (not a 4-star experience, refunds/charges issues, inflexible policies). Value is the weakest area.
Food and Beverage
9.6
Many guests praise the breakfast (described as amazing), though a few complaints note timing/service irregularities and that breakfast is served in-room by arrangement. Overall food receives strongly positive sentiment.
Overall Experience
9.7
The majority of stays are described as pleasant, comfortable and recommendable, driven largely by excellent staff and generally clean rooms; a minority of very negative experiences (value, cleanliness or noise) exist but do not dominate the overall impression.
* This sentiment is summarized by AI based on user reviews.
