Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's rooms were stuffy and hot, lacking tables and not matching the pictures, although they did provide the essential amenities. The service at the reception desk lacked customer service skills and was described as very rude. On the positive side, the location was convenient, being close to both a festival and a train station. The dining options featured a mix of hot and cold dishes and creative salads. The hotel's facilities were not specifically commented on.
I found the hotel to be in a convenient location near the train station, but the room was stuffy and hot with minimal amenities. The service was extremely poor, with rude staff and no customer service training. The dining options were satisfactory, and the facilities were average.
The hotel's location near the train station is convenient for commuters, with shops and food options nearby. However, the rooms felt stuffy and hot with a noticeable smell, despite being in good condition. The service at the reception desk lacked friendliness and customer service training, giving a poor impression to guests.
