A comfortable and enjoyable stay with friendly service, a great location, and a welcoming atmosphere
Pros:

It was a great stay. I particularly enjoyed the comfortable and well-maintained rooms, the welcoming atmosphere, and the overall service. The location was also convenient, making it easy to get around.

Cons:

There was very little to dislike. The stay was generally comfortable and enjoyable. Perhaps a wider breakfast selection and slightly faster service during busy periods could improve the experience further.

Pros:

The restaurant was good and that's about it

Cons:

This was my second time. So the bathroom the shower head was shooting water from all angles. Cockroach in the shower head coming out, because the shower was so broken the floor was flooded with water. It just didn't meet my expectations at all.
