I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room with the king size bed was comfy and clean, and the staff provided excellent service. The location was convenient, close to the mall and downtown. The dining experience was great with delicious baby back ribs. However, the hotel is not very close to areas of interest.

The hotel is a real gem! The rooms are spacious, and the king-size bed was a dream to sleep in; however, the price was a bit steep. The service was top-notch, especially with the car hire service they offered. The location is perfect, close to a variety of excellent restaurants. The dining experience was delightful, with a lovely selection of local cold cuts. The facilities were modern and convenient, but not ideal for families.

The hotel is conveniently situated near the mall and within walking distance to several restaurants, but being on a busy street with 8 big trucks passing may impact the peace. The rooms with king size beds offer good value but lack special amenities.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location is amazing, just next to the Mayfair mall and close to downtown. The rooms were spacious with a king size bed, super clean, and very comfortable. The service was top-notch with convenient car hire and excellent housekeeping. The dining experience with Tuscan bread was included, but a bit average. Overall, a great value for money choice.
