I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The location was superb, with easy access to various attractions and a lovely view. The rooms were comfortable, but the dining experience left something to be desired. The service was a mix of excellence at reception and some disorganization with the restaurant staff. However, the overall experience was positive with great facilities.

I checked into this hotel with high hopes and while it has its perks, there are also some downsides. The location is superb, near the waterfront and within a short driving distance to many attractions, making it quite relaxing. The service was a mixed bag: some aspects like the amazing room service stood out, but there were issues with the unorganized restaurant staff. The dining options, though limited, were done well. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.

I stayed at this hotel with my family and had a mixed experience. The service provided was top-notch, with exceptional room service and housekeeping, but the restaurant staff seemed disorganized and unhelpful. The location was splendid, near the waterfront and within a short drive to various tourist attractions. However, the dining options were limited, although well-prepared. The rooms were cozy, offering a great view, but the price could have been more competitive.
