During my stay, I found the hotel offered a surprisingly good value for money, with some nice upscale touches despite the mixed reviews. The room was spacious and well-equipped, although marred by cleanliness issues. Staff was generally helpful, which heightened the experience. However, I encountered problem areas such as the noisy location due to street traffic and an elevator that was quite the adventure.

The room was spacious and had a modern feel, but I encountered noise disturbances that made it hard to get a good night's sleep. The location was convenient for transportation, but I think the dining options could definitely use some improvement. Overall, it was decent value for the price but not without drawbacks.
