Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were very spacious and immaculate, providing a comfortable and clean environment. However, the beverages and snacks offered were way below my expectations. The service, on the other hand, was outstanding with friendly and professional staff who stayed calm and were responsive to any issues. The location was beautiful, surrounded by greenery and ponds, but it needs an update to match its potential. The dining experience was well above what other hotels have to offer, although I wasn't a fan of the buffet setup. Despite some drawbacks, the facilities were well above average, making my overall experience enjoyable.
