My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall, with a few standout moments and areas for improvement. The location is incredibly convenient, just a short drive from the airport and nearby attractions, while the Royal Club lounge service truly impressed me. However, I found the rooms to be quite dated and in need of renovation, which detracted from the overall experience. Additionally, some staff members, although friendly, seemed less engaged at times, which affected the service quality.

Rooms
6.0
The rooms were a good size and very clean, but they appeared quite old and could really use an update. There was also a lingering smoking smell in the non-smoking room I requested, which was disappointing. The toiletries provided were good, but overall, I would rate the rooms as needing significant maintenance.
Service
