The hotel location is classy with staff being very nice and the rooms, while clean, were a bit worn. The service was exceptional, but there is room for improvement in the dining options. The facility is well-maintained, yet some updates are needed.

The hotel room was not ideal for work or a comfortable stay due to the missing table or desk, dampness, and unpleasant odor despite the advertised Wi-Fi. However, the price was reasonable.

The hotel has a great view, lovely rooms, and is very well presented and clean. The staff were friendly, efficient, and helpful, but the manager at the reception was a bit rude. The location is top-notch, central, close to the marina, and surrounded by lovely restaurants and walking paths. The dining experience was good but could have more vegetarian options. Overall, a cozy and clean stay with excellent service and a prime location.
