Cleanliness
5.8
Multiple reviews report dirty linens, worn bedding, stained carpets and poor room cleanliness; some guests did report clean rooms, but overall cleanliness is a notable weakness.

6
Several guests report old, worn rooms, aging furniture, an old TV and general need for renovation; a few mention adequate rooms, but overall room quality is below expected standard.

Value for Money
8.8
Multiple guests state the price is appropriate for the location and services; despite issues with cleanliness and room condition, the prime location and included offerings make the hotel good value for many visitors.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast is repeatedly mentioned positively (described as tasty and satisfying) and some staff (chefs) are praised; isolated incidents (burnt mix grill) noted but overall F&B impressions are strong.
Overall Experience
7.8
