The hotel offers good value for the room with a mix of positives and negatives. The massage chair was uncomfortable and even painful, but there's a nice, comfy chair for reading. The cleanliness was an issue but balanced by the room's overall great value.

My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The location was convenient with nearby dining options and easy access to outdoor activities. The rooms were clean and cozy, but the lack of a bathtub and the musty smell were a bit off-putting. The service provided by the staff exceeded expectations, offering shuttle services, parking accommodations, and quick responses to requests. The dining experience offered a nice variety of items, but shortages due to a sports team's stay were noticeable. Despite some minor drawbacks, it was a good value for the money.

The hotel offers spacious rooms where we could enjoy a family meal comfortably, but the morning rush above us was a bit disruptive. The service was great, with quick accommodations and a lovely welcome drink. The location was convenient, especially during challenging times like floods. The dining experience was satisfying with plenty of choices, although a touch of creativity would elevate it. Overall, a place with potential but room for improvement.
