I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with my three small kids. The rooms were spacious, and everything was running normally for us. The big bed was a plus for our family setup. However, the price seemed a bit high for the value we got.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, suitable for a family with three small kids, but there were some issues with water availability. The big bed was a plus, especially for accommodating younger children. The service was decent, though specific amenities like dry cleaning, housekeeping, and laundry should be improved. The location was questionable, being situated in a very bad area of town, which was concerning for safety. However, the pricing was reasonable. The facilities were adequate, considering the presence of paid shuttle services and a welcome drink for guests.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was comfortable and clean, which was a big plus for me with three small kids, but unfortunately, the water pressure was inconsistent. The service was good overall with nice touches like dry cleaning and housekeeping available, although I wish there was a shuttle service included. The location, although in downtown, is within a dangerous area, making it a bit unsettling. The dining options were limited, and I found the fruits to be a bit underwhelming. The facilities were decent but nothing extraordinary.
