“This hotel strikes me as a smart choice for travelers prioritizing cleanliness and a well-maintained environment, with those crisp linens and spacious showers really standing out. The rooftop plunge pool provides a welcome respite, and while breakfast might benefit from fresher options, the overall experience suggests a solid, comfortable stay. It's a find that balances those essential comforts with reasonable value.”
